Building Community at the Intersection of Arts, Education, and Information

Sea's first podcast, "Shots in the Back: Exhuming the 1970 Augusta Riot," came into existence with the help of community. She'd conducted extensive research on the uprising, but the files were moldering. When a small group of community leaders formed The Augusta 1970 Riot Observation Committee and invited her to join, the idea for a podcast was born. With the support of two additional organizations, what could have been a small academic report became a National Edward R. Murrow Award-winning podcast that opened a DOJ Cold Case investigation.

It's this combination of independent effort, serendipity and collaboration that seems to be the special sauce in Sea's most dynamic, impactful projects. Whether she is strategizing narrative structure, tutoring literacy students, or interviewing an expert, Sea strives for excellence with a dose of play.

A former daily journalist and academic, Sea supports content creation and editing for a variety of freelance clients. Her own writing includes essay, memoir, fiction, poetry and scriptwriting. She holds an M.A. in journalism and an M.F.A. in fiction. To support her storytelling and outreach, she often incorporates sound, graphics, dialogue and music. For her, form supports the narrative. She is most at home creating podcast and magazine-style narrative nonfiction.

Currently, Sea serves as the Board President of the Authors Club of Augusta, a volunteer-run literary nonprofit.
