I’m the Executive Producer you call in to lead teams, small and large, in start-up and established environments to develop and launch original series, re-brand franchises in need of new revenue streams, and engage a younger demo. I've created and produced countless hours of short and long form programming including hit series in celebrity and lifestyle, pop culture, music, entertainment, news, true crime, comedy, and sports to be delivered across linear, digital, mobile, and social platforms. My productions include unscripted, documentary, docu-follow, investigative, in-studio and live formats.

I started my career as Gail Berman's assistant at HBO downtown productions. Some of my first jobs writing and producing included SNL, Good Morning America, and Weekend Today Show. I joined VH1 for a great 10-year ride where I created, and executive produced some of their highest rated series including Driven and Before They Were Rock Stars. I was recruited by E! to re-invent their flagship franchise True Hollywood Story, both on air and on-line for 123 episodes, as well as develop and show run E! Investigates. From there I oversaw the launch of PeopleTV, Time Inc.'s first OTT streaming initiative.
