Background

Local news reporter across the US; Northwestern University; Philadelphia

Specialties

Investigative audio, podcast production, video, on-camera interviewing, field reporting

I’m a journalist and audio/video producer who believes the best stories are the ones hiding in plain sight — in a Facebook group of cat owners, in an empty duck pond before a sporting event, in a pop song from 2001.

I spent years as a local news reporter in newsrooms around the country before moving to New York, where I now work as Senior Producer at Mo News — producing daily news content and conducting long-form interviews with writers, thinkers, and people making sense of the world.

I’ve served as Senior Producer on Audible Originals including Pipeline to Power, and as Lead Producer on Hyperfixed — Alex Goldman’s investigative podcast from Radiotopia from PRX — where I helped produce multi-part series digging into the strange and systemic stories listeners send in.

I’ve also produced political podcasts including Hell & High Water and Just Something About Her, reported and hosted my own audio work, and traveled internationally to cover women’s rights for NowThis Her.

I’m always interested in new projects, collaborations, and good stories. Reach out.
