Autumn Cleaning & Good Intentions

Fireworks from the 4th of July on Anderson Island, Washington.

Blogging is by no means my strong suit, but I certainly owe anyone who stumbles across this site with any sort of regularity an update, if not an apology.

Since January, we returned from South America and I started an awesome new job managing media for The Moth, a not-for-profit storytelling organization, insanely popular podcast, and the good people behind The Moth Radio Hour (check it out on a public radio station near you!) So far the position has struck the highly coveted balance of rewarding/challenging and I dare say I have some of the best coworkers on the planet (and not just because they might be reading this – hi guys!).

On a creative note, I finished a re-edit of A Problem Like Maria and completed another documentary as a part of the International Documentary Challenge (both are now posted in the “Film & Video” section this website) for which I was lucky enough to collaborate with the incredible Nicholas Whitaker among others.

I have also recently begun the Integrated Media Arts MFA program at Hunter College which I will be pursuing part-time over the next several years. As a part of that program, I hope to increase both the quantity and quality of posts on this site, but if I’ve learned anything it’s that inspiration works in mysterious and unpredictable ways. No promises, only good intentions.
