I am so honored to have had the opportunity to work with Felege Hiywot Center and KIPP Indy Public Schools and the amazing youth of Martindale Brightwood to produce The Sound of Love. A unique story that expressed what they believe could be a solution to crime in our communities. You know, it's amazing what you hear when you listen to young people. Their perspectives are so valuable when it comes to solving issues that affect all of us. It takes all of us - young and seasoned to make an impact. I'm so grateful that for the past two decades I've had the opportunity to work with young people. I started when I was just 23 myself. I was a new graduate and a new mom and I asked God if I could work with helping kids and He answered! I asked Him to teach me how to make movies because I couldn't afford film school and He answered! He taught me a special way to tell stories with community and for community.
And now in this new season I'll be teaching others how to use stories to bridge the connection to communities locally and globally. So stay tuned!
