ABOUT
ABOUT ME
WHAT I'VE DONE
I'm a resourceful and compassionate producer who believes in the power of media to entertain and do good. In all parts of my life and career, I aim to listen, to understand, and to bring stories to light.
I'm currently a digital content producer for CBS's The Late Late Show with James Corden, where I've also worked in the research and talent departments. I also produce a podcast, The Dark Place. I've worked with the likes of Participant Media, David Letterman and Larry King, and I'm a graduate of the USC School of Cinematic Arts.
WHAT I DO
I work to broaden perspectives and entertain audiences through thoughtful entertainment. I'm trained as a producer, editor, designer, and host, and I specialize in working with celebrity talent.
PORTFOLIO
The Late Late Show with James Corden
I work with a small team to create content for the Emmy-winning Late Late Show's YouTube page and social media platforms, serving in various roles as a producer, writer, editor, cinematographer, and graphic designer.
I've also produced on-air talk segments for The Late Late Show, writing questions and walking guests through every stage of their appearance.
