Creative Executive

Joined Atlas Obscura in 2018 to launch its editorial video division and ultimately served as VP of Content, overseeing cross-platform storytelling across video, audio, and editorial. Key projects included developing and launching The Atlas Obscura Podcast, which became Apple Podcasts' top travel show, won iHeart's Best Travel Podcast multiple times, and has been downloaded more than 50 million times; developing Charlie's Place, an Ambie-winning narrative series that earned multiple Signal Awards and was named one of the year's best by The Atlantic and the BBC; and developing and selling Small Town, Big Story, a five-season branded documentary series with Brand USA.

Since we're doing the LinkedIn thing here: additional recognition at Atlas Obscura included multiple Regional Emmys, Vimeo Staff Picks, and an ASME National Magazine Award finalist nod for video.

Previously served as Creative Director and Head of Content at Blue Man Group, leading social content strategy, directing music videos, and overseeing digital storytelling.
