About The Unseen Truth
The Unseen Truth is an investigative true crime podcast that dives into unsolved & cold cases from the Midwest and beyond. Each season covers an in depth investigation on a specific case through well-researched & ethically conducted storytelling, always keeping the victim's voice at the heart. A mix of documentary style production & narrative episodes featuring interviews from friends & family, and insights from detectives & valuable sources that know these cases best.
The Host
The Unseen Truth is my passion project and the true unification of my education, career, super powers and interests all in one podcast, covering cases from my home state in the Midwest (Chicago, IL) and beyond.
I earned my degree in marketing communications and journalism (as well as an MBA) from the University of Phoenix and transformed that education into a thriving career in digital marketing.
I fell in love with podcasting and knew one day I wanted to start my own digital media and podcast production company. In 2022, that dream came true.
The start of Reignited Media - a digital media and podcast production company that produces podcasts in the true crime realm - began after hosting & producing my first 2 podcasts (and helping many businesses produce their podcasts over my 15 year career).
My passion for delivering ethical true crime stories with the victim's voice at the heart, ignited a fire in me to use my skills, education & experience to make a real difference.
This prompted the start of The Unseen Truth...
