I've spent over two decades hosting, producing, and editing podcasts. I know how to make a guest comfortable, draw out a compelling story, and shape that conversation in post into something worth listening to. I hold an MFA in Motion Picture Editing, which means I think about pacing, structure, and narrative at a level most people don't. I've hosted and produced shows for B2B audiences, senior executive guests, and grassroots community listeners. I'm fluent in Descript, Adobe Audition, and remote recording workflows. I work efficiently, I meet deadlines, and I care deeply about the quality of what goes out.…I've spent over two decades hosting, producing, and editing podcasts.
