Queer Public
Queer Public is a narrative podcast about queer culture, queer identity and queer politics. Each episode explores a different aspect of queer life and tackles such issues as racism in Philadelphia's gay neighborhood, consent in the queer community, and the responsibility of our public figures to queer youth.
Homoground
Homoground is a queer music discovery podcast. As a Feature Interview Producer, I conduct interviews with new names in queer music and edit them into episodes, splicing the interview with the artist's original music. I've worked with artists such as Jax Anderson, Frankie Simone, Sinzere, Jen Champion-Nicks and WASI. I've also recorded ads for Homoground.
Netflix - Tales of Your City - Atlanta
In June of 2019, Netflix launched Tales of Your City, a series to promote the Tales of the City reboot directed by Lauren Morelli. We pitched an episode for "Atlanta". Produced in collaboration with Josh Gwyn and Anne Hepperman at Pineapple Street Media and edited by AIR New Voices Alum (2018) Ariana Martinez, this episode tells the tale of Diane and the volunteer from the Atlanta Gay Hotline in 1984 who changed everything.
Today We Tried
Today We Tried is a parenting podcast brought to you by Colugo where Ted and Christy, parents of 3, break down big moments in parenthood to make them feel less daunting and more doable. They share what worked for them and what didn't so you can copy their successes and learn from their mistakes. They also answer a listener question in their "Have You Tried?" segment.
