Our Master of Ceremonies

Patrick Armstrong (he/him) is a storyteller and entrepreneur. He is the host and producer of two award-winning podcasts: Conversation Piece, which explores the city of Indianapolis through the perspectives of its people, and The Janchi Show (pronounced: JohnChee), which amplifies and celebrates the Asian adoptee experience. Through conversation-based media and storytelling in all forms, Patrick works to provide new perspectives on the world – and people – around us and empower both individuals and organizations to meet difference, not with fear and judgement, but with curiosity and affirmation.
