I'm a video journalist with emphases in on-camera hosting, reporting, and producing currently on staff at NBC News Digital. My work has earned a National Magazine Award, an Edward R. Murrow Award, two Telly awards, an Emmy nomination, and an official selection at the Tribeca Film Festival. I typically cover stories touching on power, money, influence, culture, technology, science, ethics, and the environment. I bring a conversational style and personality to my pieces; narratively, I often act as a surrogate for the audience, bringing you along with me as I research, report out and film the story. // At NBC, I've hosted, reported, produced, and edited stories about GenZ 'quiet quitting,' the reemergence of satanic panic, ChatGPT, why virtually no one can protect their digital privacy, the thorny linguistic issues around interpreting the 2nd Amendment, how protests become riots, why millennials are a lost economic generation, how deforestation leads to pandemics, the fracking industry's debt-fueled bubble waiting to pop, Russia's test lab for cyberwar, water mining in rural Arizona, climate change's impact on Arkansas duck hunting, the James Webb Space Telescope, why no one is 'self-made', blockchain, the DNA testing industry, Juul e-cigarettes, toxic masculinity, the shady bourbon industry, the European migrant crisis, Brexit, and why city tax incentives are a scam.For Mic, I produced and edited stories on the opioid crisis, the 2016 election, the protests at Standing Rock, the Women's March, SLAPP lawsuits, the Fyre Festival and generally issues of social justice, climate change, art and culture (won an Ellie, Telly, & Murrow awards + Emmy nomination). At Business Insider I wrote, reported, produced, hosted, edited and postproduced enterprise, feature video stories on daily fantasy sports, the housing crisis in San Francisco, America's crumbling infrastructure, as well as technology and lifestyle topics.Before my career as a journalist, I spent five years after college working on the business side of the media industry — sales, biz dev, content partnerships, etc. In 2013, I changed direction and went to journalism grad school at UNC — Chapel Hill.While at UNC, I worked as a senior producer, reporter and anchor on multiple national-award-winning broadcasts (radio news, TV news and TV sports).
