MY JOURNEY:  I’m an award-winning Executive Producer, host, and writer whose work in podcasting includes 13 critically acclaimed podcasts with major industry awards recognition. Since 2023, I’ve been Exec Producer of Shaquille O’Neal’s – The Big Podcast w/ Shaq.

  • 2026: Disney releases Friends Like These, inspired by the audio series Three.
  • 2024: First docuseries podcast I helped launch (Boomtown) adapted into the Paramount+ hit TV series, Landman.
  • 2023 – now: Exec Producer of Shaquille O’Neal’s hit video podcast, The Big Podcast w/ Shaq.
  • 2019 – 2025: Worked alongside Exec Producer Jason Hoch as a Co-Producer, editor, sound designer, & audio engineer on 12 critically acclaimed true-crime audio podcast series. Received 2 Webby Award wins, and a “2025 Podcast of the Year” nomination at iHeart Awards (Three).
  • 2017-2019: Executive Producer of 105 episodes of the #GetSome with Gary Owen podcast.

  • 2014-2016: Host & Producer of The Miews, which peaked at #1 on Apple Podcasts for 13 consecutive weeks in the music genre.

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 to launch 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.
