Currently holding things down like a BOSS at NPR (NYC + Washington DC):

I'm in charge of Music Live Events and I also produce digital content for a number of NPR Music podcasts, programs and online series, including NPR Music Presents, First Listen Live, Live In Concert, Microphone Check, Front Row and Field Recordings.

In the past, I've worked with some of best lifestyle brands in the business (Adult Swim/Cartoon Network, Levi's, Red Bull, Spotify, Topshop, Puma, The Adidas Group, Smirnoff, VH1, Moet Hennessy USA, HBO, Anheuser-Busch and more!) for various global agencies.
