Audio Journalist

Think of me as a podcast doula:
An editor who supports every step from conception to launch.

 
 

Story Editing

I coach producers to take creative risks that immerse listeners into a world of sound.

 

Executive Producing

I’m the visionary who conceptualizes the show. Pitch me an idea, and we’ll make it a thing.
