Runner-Up, The Coletta Preacely-Garcia Diversity Fellowship 2024
BIO
JOSIAH BROWN is originally from St. Louis, Missouri, and has been captivated by the magic of storytelling since day one, whether it's exploring fantasy realms or reveling in the adventures of everyday life.
With his roots deeply embedded in Nigeria, his storytelling is something of a vibrant tapestry woven with cultural richness and boundless imagination. From penning short stories in middle school to plunging headfirst into the exhilarating world of scriptwriting in college, he's been on an epic quest to craft tales that entertain, inspire, and provoke thought.
Josiah is particularly passionate about infusing contemporary issues into his narratives, creating a dynamic blend of storytelling that sparks conversation and leaves a lasting impact. When not lost in the creative process, you'll find him working as the Learning & Development Coordinator at Buchwald, where I'm dedicated to fostering talent and nurturing creativity.
