I'm currently a freelance journalist/producer/writer who recently worked on narrative/investigative podcasts with Wondery, SONY, and iHeartRadio on topics including abduction and sexual offenders, domestic violence and suicide/mental health. I have a love for stories with strong narratives and character-driven arcs. I most recently researched and fact-checked several investigative podcasts, including the Sony-produced, Ambie-nominated podcast Where is Daniel Morcombe? which provides an inside look into one of Australia's largest investigations involving the abduction of a 13-year-old. I was previously at CBS News for several years where I produced daily breaking news for all of their platforms from CBS Mornings to Evening News and 60 Minutes as well as streaming and digital. I helped lead editorial coverage for major headlining news including the initial pandemic outbreak and chaotic withdrawal in Afghanistan. In the past, I investigated and wrote about social inequality in Brazil during the height of the Olympics/World Cup, as well as reported daily at the UN Headquarters for several years.…I'm currently a freelance journalist/producer/writer who recently worked on narrative/investigative podcasts with Wondery, SONY, and iHeartRadio on topics including abduction and sexual offenders, domestic violence and suicide/mental health.
