More about me
I'm the managing editor of news at KQED. Previously at KQED I have been an audio editor and producer. I've produced live, call-in current affairs shows; political coverage; four-minute features and news. Most recently before my current role, I was the editor who launched The Bay, a storytelling news podcast that comes out three times a week. We believe every good story starts local, and we lean into that. Before that I helped launch KQED's Bay Curious podcast as a producer-editor. And before that, I was the lead producer of Truth Be Told, an award-winning special series about race and identity that we distributed nationally through PRI. Before radio, I worked in print as a newspaper reporter covering city hall and planning commissions and as a reporter at The Associated Press covering business news in New York.
