About Colm Hogan
As a Montreal-born, former independent documentary filmmaker, I spent years listening to people’s life stories, from the slums of Nairobi to the streets of New York and Toronto.
I think it’s a combination of my lived experience, the belief in the raw power of authenticity and the quest for connection to others that have helped me in my own healing and self-discovery. These collective experiences have helped shape me with hope to assist others on their own journeys.
Everyone has a story. I look forward to hearing yours.
