My Recent Interview About ‘It’s Time’ with WGLT.org, an NPR Network

I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Lauren Warnecke at WGLT (NPR Network) about my award-winning short film “It’s Time.” During our conversation, I shared how a backyard maple syrup making project evolved into a meaningful exploration of climate change’s local impact. What began as a way to embrace the winter-spring transition became a three-year filmmaking journey, blending personal experience with indigenous wisdom and capturing the often-overlooked beauty of Central Illinois landscapes.
