Audio Work

I’m currently a producer for the call-in news show, Vermont Edition, which is broadcast live Monday through Thursday from 12 to 1 p.m. I pitch story ideas, book and preinterview guests, edit audio, engage listeners on social media, and handle all the little ins and outs that pop-up five seconds before showtime. I’m like Roz from Fraiser, except I live in Vermont.

Before moving to Vermont, I was a freelance contributor to the Allegheny Front, a weekly environmental news show covering Western Pennsylvania and Ohio.

I got to hang out with some cool goats (plus their human coworkers) and hear how a local community is fighting invasive plants through goatscaping.

All That’s Left Is the Roar

The Westbrook High School Marching Band received a gold medal at the last Maine State Finals in 2019. Whether they can repeat that success depends on how much the band has been impacted by two major events— the COVID-19 pandemic and a fire that has kept students from attending class together as the high school rebuilds. Is it really about gold medals or the community that marching band creates?

The first piece of narrative audio I ever produced came from a class at the University of Pittsburgh taught by Professor Erin Anderson.

All For a Piece of Plywood is an audio documentary on pop artist Keith Haring and his brief time in Pittsburgh as an art school drop out before moving on to success in New York City. Part untold art history, part scavenger hunt, part personal-reckoning.

I recommended some of my favorite books for WESA’s Speaking Volumes series. You can listen to it here.

Just for fun, back in 2013, I recommended some of my favorite books for WESA’s Speaking Volumes series. You can listen to it here.
