I work:

as a freelance audio artist and producer in Seattle. On my favorite days, I write poetry and make whatever calls me for Wordo, a literary arts collective in Seattle, with my dearest friends.

my work has appeared on National Public Radio, The Kitchen Sisters, Vice Media, and local NPR stations. I have produced and helped develop podcasts for Yale, Stanford, the Aspen Institute. I am tremendously lucky to have learned the basics from Emily Kwong (whose work you should definitely follow) and Rob Woolsey as Morning Edition host and contributing reporter at KCAW in Sitka, Alaska.

two important periods include: studying longform audio storytelling at The Salt Institute of Documentary Studies and being selected as a finalist for NPR’s Kroc Fellowship.

I am currently cooking with/ for the beautiful people of the Outer Coast Summer Seminar.

previous projects:

//dream motif, an audiovisual work of dream synchronicities, held at the Jack Straw New Media Gallery in collaboration with visual artist Jenny Lesser Holman.

//soundscapes for Verboom, a movement-based theater company in Seattle, headed by Alina Rios.

//a radio documentary about the history, growth, and future of NPR.

// a mockumentary alternative to NPR’s founding with Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me

//story production for newsmagazine shows with NPR’s Story Lab, including this one about a McDonald’s in France. And this one about a SWAT unit in Iraq.

//pre-production for NPR’s Louder Than a Riot.

//the Freedom Takes, a literature podcast from Freedom Reads, whose primary audience is people serving time in prisons and juvenile detention facilities.

horizon work:

what moves me these days are conversations and narratives that are informed by literature, art, conflict, beauty, ecology, and poetry. On Being Studios, Between the Covers, and Emergence Magazine are contributing stories and ideas that I believe to be inspired, timely, and necessary.
