Working in podcasts since 2011, I've had a front row seat to witness the maturation of the medium and support its evolution. Across my career, I've touched nearly every side of the podcast ecosystem: I am the Co-Creator of On Air Fest, the premiere cultural festival for podcasts, and helped build work x work, the first full-service creative agency in the audio space. I've developed and directed shows for brands like Meta, Target and Sonos, led strategy for major players (Warner Music Group, Spotify) as well as cultural orgs (MoMA, KCRW). I am now the General Manager of The Signal Awards, which recognizes the most potent, meaningful and unprecedented audio projects being made today. I am hardwired as a community builder, and take great pride in connecting creators to material and creative opportunities. I host monthly coffee meetups and happy hours for industry professionals in NYC. Alongside my professional work in audio, I curate listening salons, write plays and stage performances as one half of the collective Cosmophage (cosmophage.com). My work has been recognized in The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, Forbes and Wired.
