I have been a UX Strategist who also wrote dialogue to television, plays and podcasts so I decided to pivot in this direction as it actually sustains my interest more doing it. But, I haven’t figured how to represent this via a portfolio other than voiceflow png exports which don’t allow for the full variations to be seen by an HR person who may not know what to look for. Thanks for the conversation!

You're welcome! You might be interested in using Voiceflow's new(ish) webchat features, you can now embed your prototypes on a website page! Here's a recent workshop I did with them where we demo it: th-cam.com/video/ztMTuPatc10/w-d-xo.html
I'd also recommend taking a screen recording using something like Loom in addition to your pngs (I think this was mentioned in the session) so you can guide the viewer through the experience and also narrate any extra details yourself.
