Neeli Faulkner is the founder of Murder Creek Media and the senior producer and host of Skeptical, a true crime podcast that investigates claims of wrongful conviction with relentless curiosity and care.

With nearly two decades of experience in digital media, Neeli has honed her expertise in audio production, investigative research, scriptwriting, and strategic marketing. But this work is more than a skillset. It is a calling. Founding Murder Creek Media was not just a career move. It was the clearest expression of her purpose. She is committed to seeking the truth, amplifying unheard voices, and challenging broken systems.

Her six-year journey to bring Skeptical to life culminated in a groundbreaking first season that uncovered new evidence. That evidence is now being used in post-conviction appeals for two defendants. This real-world impact is at the heart of her mission and drives everything she creates next.

Neeli holds a Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems and Cybersecurity from Columbia Southern University, graduating summa cum laude. She is a proud member of Omega Nu Lambda, the National Society of Leadership and Success, and several civic organizations dedicated to community advocacy and justice reform.

At her core, Neeli believes every person deserves to be heard. She believes that the pursuit of truth, no matter how complex or uncomfortable, is worth every step. Her work is grounded in empathy, driven by accountability, and shaped by a refusal to look away when something feels wrong.
