Zollyann Howell is a journalist, correspondent, author, speaker, educator, and founder of UNWRITTEN Media, an independent media platform dedicated to documenting the stories shaping culture, community, and conversation.
A graduate of Saint Peter's University with a bachelor's degree in Mass Communications, Zollyann's journey into journalism came full circle. Although her degree prepared her for a career in media, her passion for education led her into the classroom, where she spent more than a decade as an educator before returning to her first love—storytelling.
Today, through UNWRITTEN Media, she covers cultural events, community initiatives, entrepreneurship, education, and meaningful conversations with creators, leaders, and changemakers. Whether interviewing public figures, reporting from exclusive events, or highlighting local impact, her goal is simple: to tell stories that inform, inspire, and connect people.
Beyond journalism, Zollyann is a 6× Amazon Bestselling Author, TEDx speaker, founder of Books by Zee, and founder of ZAM Learning Academy. Throughout every chapter of her career, storytelling has remained at the center of her work, whether teaching in the classroom, writing books, speaking on stages, or documenting the voices shaping our communities. Her mission is to tell the stories that deserve to be remembered while reminding others that every new chapter begins with the courage to start.
