More about me
I have 17 years of public media experience, at American Public Media and Minnesota Public Radio. I have managed station collaboration projects across radio and television. I have experience with producing and directing live and recorded programs and events - QA/two-way, debrief, and field and studio produced segments, hour-long nationally-distributed specials, and breaking news broadcasts. I have also consulted and trained journalism teams to improve culture, structure, leadership, cross-department collaboration, and creating strategic vision for larger organizational goals. I have developed training and style resources with Poynter Institute and The Carter Center for journalists and media creating content about mental health.
