THE FUTURE OF STORYTELLING
As the founder of Dream Network Media, Dayvee’s entrepreneurship is driven by a core purpose: telling stories that bridge cultures and inspire meaningful change. Long before the recent wave of mainstream journalists going independent, Dayvee pioneered this path, establishing her own production company back in 2015.
This independence has allowed her to focus on innovation not for its own sake, but as a tool for creating deeper, more authentic connections. This forward-thinking approach has led her to experiment with new forms of storytelling, from producing a series for Amazon Prime Video to crafting interactive and 360-degree video experiences for destinations. These projects are all part of her mission to amplify diverse voices and create compelling, culturally authentic multimedia experiences that resonate with audiences worldwide.
