I come from central PA, from a town crammed between sprawling farms and chocolate factories. I studied acting in college before embarking on a career working on independent movies and commercial videos. 

I edited the pilot for Family to the Rescue, a docuseries about the Rescuing Families charity and their home renovation for an underprivileged family. I've also produced and edited several short documentaries, including Another Shot, a look at gun violence and recidivism in Baltimore.

Currently, I'm editing a new documentary on the Philadelphia hair metal scene with musician Mick Michaels based on his book When We Rocked. 

A lifelong fan of the weird and spooky, I created and co-host the bi-weekly paranormal history podcast SLAYING MONSTERS with author EJ Green. I spend my spare time woodworking, focusing on building furniture from unique slabs and reclaimed wood.

I live and work in Philadelphia. I have two cats who are a little nutty and a partner who keeps us all sane.
