Hi! I’m an Austin-based documentary podcast producer and journalist with eyes and ears for true crime, stranger than fiction, and branded projects. My latest true crime podcast The Problem With Erik, which I pitched to Texas Monthly, co-wrote, and produced, premiered in the Apple Podcasts top 20. The corresponding article I co-wrote appeared on Bloomberg’s 2024 jealousy list.

Other podcasts I’ve produced include Cadence13's Edward R. Murrow-Award winning documentary podcast Gone South, About a Boy: The Story of Vladimir Putin hosted by Julia Ioffe, and Audacy's Glitter and Might.

My background is in screenwriting, production, and development, and my television credits include season two of Emmy award-winning 'Euphoria' and season one of Amazon Prime's 'Outer Range.'

When I’m not working, I can be found binge-watching documentaries, day-tripping around Texas, or swimming at Deep Eddy.
