You know that person on set who’s calm in chaos, obsessed with the story, and somehow still laughing at hour 14? That’s me.

I’ve spent over 13 years producing unscripted TV — more than 300 hours of it — for networks like HGTV, Hulu, MTV, A+E, Bravo, CNBC, History, TLC, and others I can’t name because of NDAs (you know how it is). I’m a storyteller at heart, always chasing what’s real: the raw moments, the weird quirks, the honest emotion. I love figuring out what makes people tick and turning it into something watchable, memorable, and just the right amount of messy.

But storytelling is just one piece of the puzzle. I’m also a master of making things happen. Juggling budgets, managing crews, overseeing field shoots, working with all kinds of talent — from unpredictable first-timers to seasoned hosts and pulling everything together in post. I thrive in the chaos of production, where tight deadlines, moving targets and last minute surprises are just part of the fun. I’m hands-on, team-first, and all about finding the sweet spot between structure and spontaneity.

TV will always be my foundation, but I’m ready to stretch — I got a taste of the branded world while producing unscripted — folding national retailers into full-scale renovations, sneaking products into scenes so seamlessly they felt like part of the cast. It was like a puzzle I didn’t know I loved solving. Figuring out where a brand naturally clicks into the story without killing the vibe? I’m all in.

Let’s make something people won’t scroll past.
