Michelle Kukurich,

Visual Storyteller

🎥 Visual Storyteller for Nonprofits & Podcasters
Hi, I’m Michelle — a two-time Emmy-nominated video editor who LOVES a good story!
Every organization has a powerful story to tell — including yours. Whether you’re a mission-driven nonprofit or a purpose-fueled podcaster, your story is the heart of what you do. But if the thought of being in front of a camera makes you a little uneasy… you’re not alone. That’s why I call myself The Awkward Storyteller — because I know that showing up as your authentic self is more powerful than perfection.
✨ Here’s what I believe: The fastest way for people to Know, Like, and Trust you is through real, relatable storytelling — and who better to tell your story than you?
With a background in broadcast news and years of experience behind the camera (and in the editing suite), I’ve helped countless changemakers find their voice and shine on screen. My Emmy nominations were exciting, but the real reward is helping nonprofits, creatives, and community leaders connect with their audiences in meaningful ways.
So…
📌 Do you have a fun or heartfelt moment that reflects your mission?
📌 Want to explain what you do in a way your audience will actually remember?
📌 Looking to level up your podcast with storytelling that keeps listeners coming back?
That’s where I come in.
From strategy to storytelling, camera to cutting room, I help transform your everyday experiences and bold ideas into content that sticks. Whether it’s a heartfelt donor story, a behind-the-scenes moment, a values-driven campaign, or an inspiring podcast episode — I’ll help you create content that resonates and drives connection.
🎙️ 🎬 Let’s make storytelling your superpower — and turn your mission into a movement.
I’d love to chat about your vision and see how we can bring it to life!

Customers reviews

Michelle has been a tremendous asset to the team. She has a great eye and ear for detail and is always sharing her best work. She is always ready to tackle a new challenge, is an effective communicator, and would be a valued addition to any team.
Emily Porter
Podcast Manager and Producer
I recently worked with Michelle on a client’s YouTube channel. She was a master at visual storytelling and condensing hour-long video segments into fast-paced, action-packed demo videos that we could use on Youtube and repurpose on other social media platforms. Her solid background in TV news and understanding of social media marketing, made her a solid video editor and extremely easy to work with. I will be working with her again and refer her to all my business peers who need help with video content.
