About Our Organization

Founded in October of 2021

For three decades, I have been a story teller. Words have power - they can either connect us or divide us. There are so many stories of inspiration that aren’t getting the attention they deserve. My goal is to shine a light on the things that are working. We can go through hardships, and come out the other side with resilience. And a well written story can have a ripple effect that will change lives.

Our Mission

Storytelling Education Project is created to connect, educate, and enlighten people through storytelling, either through film, comedy, theater, books, music, through live events, workshops, film festivals, classes, educational outreach and partnerships. Staff will be operated exclusively for such purposes and encourage all ages, races, and demographics to tell their stories.
