Hess's Heroes

Welcome to the very first “Hess’s Heroes” podcast! I feel like there should be some sort of drum roll or fireworks going off in the background. The reason we are here is that a while back I was thinking about my own strengths and weaknesses and after fumbling around with some classes in machine learning and human-centered design that I thought would help me in my day job, I came to a realization that what I enjoy most is a good story, and so I decided to start a podcast about people’s stories that I personally find inspiring with the may provide a lesson or two for all of us and perhaps a little loftier maybe make us happier and perhaps better. There is a lot of negativity in today’s world and I hope this can provide people some hope. To that end, my guest today is long time friend Nelson Dellamagiore, making him “Hess’s Hero” number one. Nelson was one of the first people that came to mind because he and his team, including his amazingly talented wife Katie have been making documentary films for some time
