Today we’d like to introduce you to Sherreece Rowe.
Hi Sherreece , so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
My name is Sherreece Rowe, I am a Baltimore-born filmmaker, writer, and communications professional who has always believed in the power of storytelling to shift culture and create connection. My creative journey began in theater, band, and stage crew during school, and eventually led me to roles in feature films, Netflix’s House of Cards, and stage productions across Baltimore and D.C.
But my real turning point came in 2024, when I wrote, produced, and directed my first short film series, Love Jawns. Released on YouTube as a three-part story, Love Jawns was my personal test to prove that with heart, vision, and consistency, anything is possible. What most people don’t know is that I was fighting through a serious health challenge at the time. Living with fibroids and enduring treatments while balancing production was one of the hardest seasons of my life. But the project taught me resilience, discipline, and the importance of finishing what I started—even when everything in me felt like giving up.
That experience has directly shaped my newest project, HEAVY: The Silent Weight of Fibroids. This documentary is deeply personal, rooted in my own silent battle with fibroids for over seven years. But it’s also much bigger than me. HEAVY amplifies the voices of Black women who suffer in silence due to the lack of awareness, funding, and compassionate care around fibroids. It challenges the culture of silence and the “quick fix” mindset, while centering real stories, lived experiences, and what women truly need.
If there’s one theme that defines my story, it’s perseverance. No matter the setbacks, I’ve learned to keep creating, to keep building, and to keep pulling through. That’s what The Front Rowe Seat Media, the creative collective I founded, is all about—making space for others to do the same.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It definitely hasn’t been a smooth road. I lost my dad just shy of my 17th birthday — his funeral was actually on my birthday. When I lost him, I lost a huge part of myself. I fell into depression, and for a long time, I put my dreams and goals to the side because my biggest supporter was suddenly gone.
From 17 into my mid-20s, I struggled to stick to anything. I became what I like to call a serial procrastinator — a jack of many trades and master of none. Then, to make things harder, I was diagnosed with fibroids, and my quality of life started to decline.
I was chasing purpose, trying to figure out what truly made me happy. I was working in radio and doing a lot in entertainment — interviewing celebrities and athletes like Cam Newton, acting in plays around Baltimore and DC, even appearing in House of Cards and an HBO feature film called Better Living Through Chemistry. But despite all that, I still felt empty. I still felt like something was missing.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I’m a storyteller at heart. Whether I’m writing, producing, directing, or bringing a vision to life on screen, everything I do centers around the power of storytelling. My work spans film, digital media, and podcasting, where I explore stories that move people, provoke thought, and spark connection.
I specialize in producing and managing creative projects from concept to completion; shaping narratives that reflect real human experiences, especially those that often go unheard. I’m known for my ability to balance creativity with structure and turning ideas into organized, impactful productions with intention and emotional depth.
What I’m most proud of is creating projects that give voice to important stories, like my documentary Heavy: The Silent Weight of Fibroids, which sheds light on women’s health experiences that are rarely discussed, or my podcast Rated Rowe, where I use conversation as a mirror for self-awareness and growth.
What sets me apart is my ability to see the full picture and not just the art of storytelling, but the production process, audience impact, and emotional resonance behind it all. I don’t just tell stories, I build worlds that invite people to feel, reflect, and see themselves in new ways.
How do you think about happiness?
What makes me happy is creating, telling stories through film, writing, and production that connect people on a deeper level. There’s something incredibly fulfilling about turning an idea into something real, something that can make people feel seen, understood, or inspired.
I’m happiest when I’m behind the camera or in the creative process, directing a scene, developing a story, or watching others come alive through their roles. Storytelling gives me purpose; it allows me to blend emotion, vision, and impact all at once.
What truly brings me joy is knowing that my work can make someone feel less alone or encourage them to think differently. That’s why I do what I do, because stories told with heart have the power to heal, unite, and transform.
