Welcome and thank you for your interest! What's on this website? WORK. LOTS of it! Twenty plus years of Emmy and Peabody Award winning television journalism for NBC News and The Today Show.
As a producer at THE TODAY SHOW...where do I start? First, the extremely serious: wars in the Middle East, presidential politics and scandals, landmark court trials, plane crashes, riots, floods, fires, earthquakes and anything else deemed serious enough to land in the show's first half hour.
Next, and a bit lighter: Hollywood awards shows, industry news, celebrity and movie profiles, TODAY branded partnerships.
And my favorite wheelhouse: the feature. There is nothing I enjoy more than the luxury of time to tell a story that matters to someone else, a family, a group, an organization or just one person who needs to hear something inspiring or life-changing...news and newsmakers making a difference. You name it and I've probably done a story on it...but there is SO much more to tell!
Prior to TODAY, I produced breaking news, as well as a wealth of hidden camera investigations about healthcare, home repair fraud, food safety, airline industry cover-ups and consumer safety for DATELINE NBC. In addition I also produced National Geographic features for the DATELINE NBC brand.
A graduate of Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism, I began my career writing hard news and feature stories for THE WASHINGTON POST. My work there included coverage of presidential elections; gubernatorial and senate races; Chicago school reform; as well as a wide variety of other political and social issues of the day.
Extracurriculars: As a Board Member of Children's Lifeline International, a children’s charity that provides medical and surgical assistance to the underprivileged in developing countries, I produced documentaries of Lifeline missions to South America, Central America, India, Africa and Cambodia.
