At Jones Day, I manage content workflows from preproduction through distribution, develop bespoke series for sensitive clients, and help pioneer outlets including Spotify and Instagram.

I've produced and directed television, video, podcasts, photography, and multi-platform campaigns for the Cleveland Browns, E.W. Scripps' The List, and commercial clients. My work includes an Emmy-winning Building the Browns special and nationally syndicated features and promos.

I bring hands-on production leadership across writing, directing, crews, cameras, post-production, and client collaboration. I also founded LESS Productions and have led award-winning client media campaigns.
