MY JOURNEY: I’m an award-winning executive podcast producer whose work includes 16 critically acclaimed podcasts that have amassed over 300 Million downloads/streams and multiple awards honors. Since 2023 I have been the Executive Producer of The Big Podcast with Shaq, a top-ranked video podcast hosted by NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal; as well as an award-winning True Crime podcast editor and audio engineer.
I began podcasting in 2014 as the host of The Miews magazine podcast, which became the #1 music business podcast on Apple. In 2016, I was hired by NBA Champion (now agent) BJ Armstrong to executive produce the BJ & Bucher show. In 2017, I launched United We Cast Network with Fox Sports analyst Ric Bucher, where I executive produced several successful sports podcasts, and 105 episodes of the hit comedy podcast, #GetSome with Gary Owen. I also earned my first film credit in 2017 as the Music Supervisor on the NBA documentary Mr. Chibbs on Amazon Prime Video.
BEFORE PODCASTING: My Grammy-nominated audio production career began in college. After college, I worked as a civil engineer for 12 years, spending nights and weekends crafting music for multiplatinum and Grammy winning artists like BoyzIIMen, Usher, and Juvenile.
In 2009 I left civil engineering behind and launched what became my award-winning magazine journalism and publishing career. During that same time I managed the careers of top actors like Sara Tomko, Irone Singleton, and Jeff Rose (2009-2014); all of which led to my podcasting career.
