Ensuring blind people enjoy watching videos.

Connecting Audiences, Elevating Stories.

Passion Fueled by Personal Purpose

The heartbeat of my work began when I experienced firsthand how audio description impacts lives. Years ago, during my friend’s final battle with cancer, we laughed over episodes of our favorite TV show without missing a beat—all thanks to audio description. That moment solidified my commitment to making entertainment a shared experience for everyone.

Today, I advocate for storytelling that leaves no one behind. From performing and producing AD for blockbuster hits to mentoring the next generation of talents in AD performance, I channel my passion into reshaping how stories are told and experienced.
