[Climbing #2] Platform

Welcome to part two of our chapter on climbing - turning challenges into opportunities in order to realize one’s full potential. This week, I sat down to talk story with an up-and-coming Austin-based filmmaker, Chinwe Okorie. Chinwe shares how the various cultural and health obstacles she has faced has driven her to push for diverse representation in film and create a platform for others’ stories. You can check out some of her work on youtube (https://www.youtube.com/c/chinweokorie) and vimeo (https://vimeo.com/chinweokorie). Keep a lookout for her first short film to be released soon.
