My Story
MIA RENEE HENRY | PRODUCER
My passion for storytelling was ignited through a diverse array of mediums, including literature, film, and video games. Upon completion of my undergraduate degree, I contributed as a primary team member at the inception of two startup ventures—one in the healthcare realm and the other in E-Sports, where I delved into the dynamic world of live broadcasting.
​
Transitioning my skills and experiences, I made a foray into the film industry, where I became an integral part of the two-time Emmy-nominated feature documentary team behind “Judy Blume Forever”. I was inspired by the directors' passionate storytelling and dedication to their craft, and since then I have been driven to do the same.
​
My current focus encompasses documentary formats spanning from news segments, short films, and feature-length productions. With each project I undertake, my mission remains steadfast: to provoke introspection, ignite empathy, and catalyze positive change within our society.
