Making an Impact With the Audience That Makes a Difference
Hacker Valley partnered with their sponsor Axonius to launch the first season of their new talk show Technically Divided. Exploring divisive topics within tech and cyber, we filmed each episode in a different location across Dallas and Austin, TX. As the show’s director and producer this series offered me exciting opportunities to explore unscripted storytelling while managing large, complex productions.
Speaking to special guests with such diverse backgrounds as CISO, sales directors, AI researchers, and even a retired CIA case officer, the show set forth a bold new example for how to have important conversations in the digital space.
