Producer, How to L.A.
I’m a reporter and audio producer originally from the Bay Area. I moved to L.A. in 2018 and fell in love with the culture and rhythm of this place. I attended graduate school in journalism at USC Annenberg, and now consider myself an Angeleno for life.
I love making stories that heavily focus on people - their pain, their triumphs, their patterns and their passions. I tend to gravitate toward stories about mental health, cultural trends and the environment.
My reporting has been featured in the Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, Huffpo, PBS and more. Now, I’m a producer on the LAist Studios podcast, How To LA.
Outside of media, I love to cook, be outside, be anywhere where there’s dancing involved, and explore esoteric philosophy.
