Vocal Storytelling - Presentations, Media Interviews, and Podcasts
- BarCamp 2018 - Unlocking Quirks as Superpowers presentation: How do we use the aspects that make us different as superpowers? I decided to answer that question as a 45-minute presentation for BarCamp Philly. Watch the slideshow with voice-over recording on YouTube.
- PANMA - Hacking Healthcare presentation: I delivered a 7-minute presentation as part of the Philadelphia Area New Media Association's annual Show and Tell Event, which features a series of lightning presentations around a particular topic. My topic focused on how Get Covered Philly is helping to promote the Open Enrollment Period for Health Insurance in Philadelphia. Watch the presentation on YouTube.
- WHYY's The Pulse - Why We Exercise: WHYY's Shai Ben-Yaacov asked me about my decision to begin a weight-loss regimen in 2007, and how my relationship with food and the people around me changed in the years that followed. Listen to the episode on The Pulse's website. (Segment begins at 32:17.)
- Breaking Mayberry podcast - I Thought I Might Find a Riot Here!: I guest starred on episode six of Breaking Mayberry, a podcast that examines The Andy Griffith Show through a modern lens, to talk about voter suppression and women running for office with hosts/friends Martin R. Schneider and Dan Ludwig. Listen to the episode on iTunes. (Content warning: strong language)
