I co-hosted two seasons of Grown with The Moth, a narrative podcast centering stories about identity, belonging, and coming of age. The project required deep trust-building, editorial guidance, and care for both storytellers and our listeners.

My contribution included:

• Hosting podcast episodes centered on youth storytellers and lived experience, engaging in unscripted, nuanced conversations with storytellers and my co-host

• Collaborating closely with producers during the show’s development to shape episode structure and narrative flow

• Curating episodes by screening stories and defining the thematic core of each episode

Highlights:

• Over 320,000 downloads across two seasons

• Featured as an Apple Podcasts Spotlight show

• Received a Webby Award and two Signal Awards for excellence in audio storytelling
