More about me
I'm currently a producer with WSJ Podcasts. Previously, I've worked with Gimlet Media's Crimetown, as well as podcasts at Slate and Radiotopia. When it comes to my work, I'm most proud of my strong Pro Tools skills – everything from cutting tape to light audio mixing and sound designing. I'm most interested in working on longform narrative projects, but I've also worked on news shows as well. I've won awards for my work in podcasts + radio. Most recently, I won the NYS Financial Journalism award for a story I produced on bitcoin and the story behind cryptocurrency's origins. At the Journal, I've covered topics ranging from finance, crime, tech, and justice, but my sweet spot is at the intersection of finance and crime. In my free time, I teach workshops on longform audio production at Dartmouth College.
