Theresa Loconsolo, former audio producer at TechCrunch, has turned Equity — the network’s flagship podcast — into one of the best shows we produce. She currently resides in New Jersey. With her Masters of Science in Communication, she works at the intersection of narrative and technology to further policy conversations around equity and finance.
Loconsolo received her bachelor’s degree in Communication from Monmouth University. There, she honed her skills as a storyteller and media producer. These educational cornerstones have provided her with the skills, knowledge, and tenacity to face the dynamic battleground of tech journalism.
As the co-host and producer of TechCrunch’s Equity, Loconsolo creates compelling, informative, and fun content. Join us as we dive into this new frontier at the crossroad of technology and finance. Production for her is about the audio, not so much the image. She’s a sausage maker (i.e., producer) on the show, working with hosts and guests to ensure discussions are engaging and illuminating for listeners. At her consulting firm, Through Equity, she strives to demystify startup funding and financial strategies. Her aim is to bring these often abstract subjects to life for a broader audience.
It’s quickly become one of the most popular and highly regarded tech podcasts in the nation. This success is primarily the result of Loconsolo’s tireless commitment and inventive thinking. She approaches each episode with a commitment to craft. Her passion is developing effective communication strategies targeting both industry veterans and newcomers alike. By focusing on relevant themes and current events, she helps listeners stay informed about the ever-evolving landscape of technology and investment.
Loconsolo’s desire to get into audio production comes from her love for storytelling. She knows that strong communication can connect the dots between complicated topics and alt-text helps everyone be a part of that. Her contributions to TechCrunch embody this philosophy, as she’s always looking for new ways to share stories with audiences using the magic of sound.
