I have been writing all my life. My journalism career began in 2006, when I got my first job out of college writing and reporting for celebrity weekly magazines. I eventually transitioned to digital, running the entertainment department for the New York Daily News’ website, then as the Deputy Digital Editor for Entertainment Weekly. While at EW, I began covering podcasts for print and online and produced a slate of shows for the brand and People magazine. In 2019, I joined iHeartMedia as the executive producer of podcasts.
