Reporter, Editor, Producer
New Orleans, Louisiana
I’m a multimedia journalist, reporter, editor and radio producer. In February 2025, I joined the digital team at The Advocate newspapers, working out of the New Orleans office of The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate, where I joined the business team as a reporter in September 2025.
From January 2017 to January 2025, I was a local editor with Patch.com covering Chicago’s North Shore. Prior to that, I wrote and produced newscasts and audio features for businesses and consumers for Rivet Radio and was a producer of the WBEZ program Worldview. I’ve also hosted and produced talk shows in the world of non-commercial radio and created podcasts for businesses and nonprofits.
