Selected Explainer & Storytelling Work
I specialize in translating dense policy and systems topics into clear, engaging stories for general audiences.
Below are two selected samples that reflect my approach to research-driven storytelling across written and video formats.
Streetsblog Chicago Writing Sample
I researched and wrote this piece, translating transportation funding policy and household cost data into a narrative explainer for a general audience. It was syndicated by Streetsblog USA and shared by the Illinois Speaker of the House and other state legislators.
Safe Roads Agreement Comedy Song
Written and performed by me, with two additional actors, this piece uses humor and music to translate a dense transportation policy agreement into a short, memorable narrative for a general audience. The song opens with a brief explanatory monologue that sets the context before moving into the musical portion.
