As a 4x Emmy-nominated talent executive/booker/producer of VIP talent, Colleen has well-honed instincts, passion, and a proven track record for identifying zeitgeist-tapping talent and content. Whilst researching and interviewing experts for a true-crime project, Colleen stumbled upon decade-old footage of Chris and was instantly wowed. A month later, they met at Crime Con and a creative partnership ensued. Colleen’s interest in true-crime stems from personal experience including two close calls with serial killers. She came of age in the San Fernando Valley when it was a literal hunting ground for a staggering 20+ serial killers including Manson, The Hillside Stranglers, The Nightstalker, and The Golden State Killer. In her early 20’s, Colleen evolved from a potential victim to a sagacious self-protector by learning about criminal psychology, prevention tactics, and self-defense. Colleen is excited for listeners to be similarly empowered by Chris’s captivating stories and life-changing tips.
