About

I’m a veteran media professional with decades of experience interviewing guests on TV, radio, and podcasts. English is my mother tongue.

At the Wall Street Journal in New York, I hosted and co-produced two daily TV shows (one on current affairs, the other on consumer tech) for seven years. At the same time, I frequently hosted radio shows on WABC and the Wall Street Journal, and, more recently, have embraced podcasting. In other words, I have a track record in TV/radio/podcast production and in interviewing a variety of leading experts, including scientists, economists, priests, and others. Given the wide variety of guests, I have always endeavoured to adapt to their strengths and help them shine on-air.

In each case, I researched the relevant topics for every broadcast and wrote my own questions and introductions. Thorough preparation has been vital because my work primarily involved presenting live TV and radio. Put simply, there was no room for errors while I was on-air.
