About

I build things that matter to people - communities, conversations, stages, and content that connects.For over 20 years, I've been at the intersection of media, entertainment, and culture in New York City. I've produced 500+ events, launched multiple podcast series, built creative communities that grew to 80,000+, and spent the last several years developing Story Lab NYC - a vetted space where serious screen storytellers sharpen their craft and find their people.My work lives in the space between strategy and soul. I know how to position a brand, develop a content slate, manage a production, and host a room - and I know how to make all of it feel like it belongs to the people in it.What I bring to the table:
+ Multi-platform content development (podcast, IRL, digital, social)
+ Creative strategy and campaign ideation
+ Community architecture and audience development
+ Podcast production, hosting, and editorial direction
+ Partnership development across media, entertainment, and culture
I'm not just a connector - I'm a builder. And I'm looking to bring that to a team, brand, or media company ready to make something worth talking about.📍 Based in NYC | Open to creative projects, contract, and fractional creative roles
