Priya Swaminathan and Tonia Davis will lead the Obamas’ Higher Ground Productions as co-heads, the company announced Tuesday.

Swaminathan was a former director of development at Annapurna while Davis previously oversaw development for TV and film productions at Chernin Entertainment, according to Variety.

Their appointment comes as the Obamas move closer to producing content for Netflix following their agreement with the streaming giant last year.

With Higher Ground Productions, we hope to bring people together around common values and uncommon stories,” former President Obama says in a statement.

Obama said the duo, along with Qadriyyah “Q” Shamsid-Deen, who will serve as the company’s creative executive, will “bring that vision to life.”

“They’re masterful storytellers.

They’re veterans in the industry. And they not only bring their unique perspectives and life experiences to every project, but they’re committed to finding new voices who have their own stories to tell
