When I can, I explore stories in sound and find paths for others to lift their voices.

For KALW Public Radio, I:

• Reported and produced featured-length stories on indigenous land-back initiatives and environmental (in)equity through the 1000-year history of one city park & (for the station’s @Work series) a Mexican-American composer’s venture into virtual opera - and his roots - at the height of the pandemic.

• Broke news on mandatory minimum drug sentencing (broadcast statewide), campus sexual harassment protests and legislation, abortion buffer zones, and school closures in black and brown communities.

For Reveal, from the Center for Investigative Reporting, I:

• tracked down county sheriffs from the Canada to Mexico border to investigate a new special program forcing low-wage ag workers into fire evacuation zones (in partnership with World Affairs)

For World Affairs’ On Shifting Ground with Ray Suarez, I:

• wrote scripts, scoured archives, and cut tape for over twenty podcast/broadcast episodes, distributed on 40+ NPR-affiliate stations across the country. A few of the episodes I’m proudest of: The Price Haitians Paid for Freedom; All Eyes on Sudan; Zero-Sum, Zero-Change.

• I also served as a supervising producer for the pilot of a new narrative series investigating break-ups, balloons, and ballistic missiles on the Korean Peninsula.

I am proficient and experienced in multiple digital audio workstations: ProTools, Adobe Audition, and Descript.
