Biography
I am an editorial strategist, audience development leader, video producer, news junkie, and published humor writer with more than 20 years of experience telling stories across platforms.
My career spans Samsung News, U.S. News & World Report, SmartNews, Forbes, WNET/PBS, and Christie’s, where I have led newsrooms, built audiences, developed content strategies, produced award-winning video, and helped major brands find smarter ways to connect with people. Equal parts news junkie, data nerd, and storyteller, I combine sharp editorial instincts with audience insight, creativity, and a healthy appreciation for the absurd.
