About the Show

"Making An American" is my personal and collaborative exploration of what it means to be American. Follow along and maybe we'll learn something about ourselves along the way.

Through intimate conversations and personal stories, we explore themes of identity, belonging, family, hopey-change, what it means to be great, some of the uglier bits, and the pursuit of the American Dream.
