The Host ─ Alana Nichols

Alana was a unique story from the start. Born in Taiwan, Alana was diagnosed with an extremely rare form of deafness in both ears, known as the stone deaf. Alana’s parents didn’t give up and travelled the world searching for a solution. At the age of two, Alana received an invasive cochlear implant surgery, which finally brought sounds into Alana’s life and allowed her to learn to hear and speak. With an ironic twist of fate, Alana is now an English-speaking travel show host. Through positivity and determination, Alana hopes to leave the audience with a healthy dose of inspiration and optimism. She aspires to use filmmaking as a powerful tool to share her stories and makes positive impacts to the world.
