Campbell’s love of serialized television grew from childhood as it created an outlet of imagination and escapism in which she could be immersed in whichever on-screen story world she admired most. However, as a proud Afro-Jamaican born and raised in Canada, Campbell did not see faces like hers on screen, missing out on the diasporic representations that make younger generations feel seen. Her strong work ethic and relentless ambition soon turned an idea into a verifiable ambition for writing.
In addition, Campbell’s love and passion for human rights and social justice encouraged her to apply for Carleton University’s infamous Journalism program where she realized her true passion for storytelling, broadcasting, and video media. In her time at Toronto Metropolitan University’s competitive Media Production program, Campbell has created the ‘Black Hour’ radio show for the universities’ SpritLive radio station; shedding light on Black issues in the city of Toronto as well as up-and-coming Black musicians while completing her degree through countless media writing and producing projects which focus on her passion for diverse stories and representation.
After graduating with a Bachelors Degree in Media Production and a specialization in screenwriting Campbell has freelanced as a Production Coordinator at CBC Kids in-house TV Team, a Video Producer at CBC News Digital and is currently an Executive Coordinator at CaribbeanTales Media Group - editing and supervising scripts, providing script notes, coverages and reports and deputizing on the CEO’s behalf across all departments. Campbell is also currently looking to pursue and write afro-surrealist, comedy and dramatic projects - producing creative series featuring accurate and collaborative BIPOC and LGBTQ+ representations that she feels are so desperately missing from the industry today.
