The Other Side of the Story
Motivated by the lack of visibility for young athletes in developing countries and the broader underrepresentation of women across professions, I launched a storytelling project: a documentary highlighting the lives and challenges of young athletes in China, aiming to capture narratives too often overlooked — and bring them to the spotlight.
My podcast explores the voices and stories of women who have carved space for themselves in male-dominated fields — from sports to science to filmmaking. Through candid interviews and reflective narration, the podcast highlights not only the barriers these women face, but also the creativity, resilience, and solidarity that fuel their journeys. It's a platform to question norms, celebrate progress, and inspire young listeners to take up space with confidence.
Hear Her Voices
But the story continues...
Working on the athlete documentary and women’s podcast taught me how powerful storytelling can be — and how often it’s missing from the lives of those who deserve it most.
​
But the more stories I collected, the more I realized something deeper: this wasn’t just about people — it was about cultures. About what gets preserved, what gets erased, and who decides.
That realization brought me to Tibet.
​
I began a new project focused on documenting Tibetan cultural heritage — its language, its rituals, its everyday life — not just as history, but as living identity. Where my earlier work centered on personal voices, this one asks: what does it mean for an entire culture to be at risk of being silenced? Through this project, I’m learning that voice isn’t always loud — sometimes it’s quiet, woven into stories passed down, or a prayer whispered in a language few understand. And I want to help make sure those voices are still heard.
