I’m a Writer, Producer and Researcher with experience in field and studio, from pre-production to air.

Background

I began my career at The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, took a detour into writing ads, and then went back into news-disguised-as-comedy as a Segment Producer at The Opposition with Jordan Klepper. Most recently, I was a Field AP at Desus & Mero. I have produced 200+ episodes of network television.
