I’m Jessica.
Jessica Lara Ticktin is an independent multimedia producer and journalist who uses storytelling as a tool for public education. She believes stories help us understand one another, make sense of the world around us, and open new ways of thinking. Through listening — and being listened to — storytelling cultivates empathy and invites deeper connection.
Everyone has a story to tell.
