Colleen is a freelance creative producer and writer whose work specializes in impactful storytelling and thoughtful consideration of the world at large.
Over the last decade, she has worked extensively in the outdoors/sports realm, helping champion voices and stories that may have otherwise been overlooked by the mainstream. From developing, writing, and producing web series to captaining campaigns for global lifestyle and sports brands, Colleen is well-versed in just about any format of content production.
Colleen has been referred to by some of her clients as, “the one to call when you’re trying to get somewhere weird.” She is experienced and thrives in the challenge of executing projects that explore off-beat or unexpected locations, stories, and characters.
Her motivation is generally fueled by the weirdness, wonder, and tenderness of humanity, and the steady belief that if you’re willing, the curiosity never has to end.
Personal creative work and writing can be found on Hot Water, a Substack by Colleen Conroy.
