About Me

I'm an independent producer who is helping launch KSQD's news team in Santa Cruz, California. I produced extensive work with KBOO in Portland, Oregon and have also produced with KUSP and KALX. I focus on topics related to arts, culture, the social sciences, and politics.

I also specialize in digital media and am leading KSQD's current efforts in this regard. I acted as the Web Coordinator for KBOO where I led a rebranding project, initiated a music podcasting project, participated in the launch of the Free Music Archive and ushered the beginning of the station's blogging presence.

My Groups:
Favorite Shows: Radiolab, This American Life, The Moth
Influences: Radiolab, This American Life, The Moth
