About the Founder:
Amanda Triplett is a high school and college English teacher with over 20 years of education experience. When she participated in a multimedia workshop at Syracuse University in 2019 and connected with NPR podcasters, she fell in love with the tool of podcasting and wondered why every teacher in the country wasn’t using it on a regular basis. Since then Amanda has worked with numerous teachers and school districts throughout the southeast, as well as nonprofits and small businesses to develop podcasting competitions, workshops and community events. She has had multiple Top 10 NPR winners as well as starting the regional podcast competition Speak Up Whitfield.
