Stories shaped from real interviews about war, resilience and reconciliation deserve editing that feels more like careful listening than rewriting. I would love to support What We Carry by helping refine each narrative so it is clear, compelling and stage ready while still sounding like the person who lived it. My background is in narrative nonfiction and interview based storytelling, where I focus on clarifying structure and pacing, tightening language and lifting key emotional beats without smoothing away the rough edges that make a voice authentic. On projects that touch trauma or conflict, I move slowly and respectfully, checking that every edit serves the storyteller and the project’s intent, not just style. In this role I would approach each piece by mapping its arc, highlighting moments of tension and release, and making light line edits so transitions feel fluid and the emotional throughline is easy for an audience to follow. I am responsive, comfortable collaborating with an Artistic Director, and happy to adjust scope if stories grow beyond the one hour estimate. If it is helpful, I can share a short sample of my editing approach and a brief note about how I would handle one of your narratives from raw interview to polished script.
