I was raised on prestige dramas, the CW, and the kind of pop culture moments that made you pause your DVR. One of my earliest memories is going to the premiere of Beauty & the Beast, and by middle school I was writing movie reviews for the school paper between study halls spent scrolling Entertainment Weekly. There was never a moment when I wasn’t trying to understand how and why stories shape culture—and how to be part of that shaping.

My career path curved through music, radio, and even PR before everything clicked on the set of Judge Judy. Producing for that show gave me my first real taste of collaboration, storytelling under pressure, and the incredible satisfaction of seeing people react—positively, passionately, or otherwise—to something I helped create. I was hooked.

What Drives Me

I’m drawn to projects that remix the familiar—stories that give fresh spins on classic tropes or play with form in unexpected ways. Whether it's a season of television that unfolds over a single day (The Pitt) or a show that shoots every act in one long take (The Studio), I love finding reinvention in the expected. Everything's been done before. It's how you present it—and what lens you use—that keeps it alive.

Vibe Check

I may not have a quirky creative ritual, but I bring a grounded, collaborative approach to everything I work on. I’m less about ego and more about cohesion—and I’m fluent in the unspoken art of reading the room.

Also: I’ll defend 90s R&B one-hit wonders and Buffy the Vampire Slayer like they’re high art.

(Because they kind of are.)

To sum it up?

I’m the person who brings ideas to life with equal parts instinct and intent—and just enough cultural chaos to keep it interesting.

If you want to make something emotionally intelligent, culturally tuned, and beautifully crafted—I’m in.
