I came to MSNBC in 2006, as part of the start-up team on Your Business— a program devoted to small business entrepreneurship. I was there for the full 12 years of the show until its run ended in January 2019.

During that time I produced profile segments, makeovers, half-hour remote specials, podcasts, social media video, and print reports.

I co-authored the book: It's Your Business, published by Hachette. It was based on my own reporting and the work of my two colleagues at the show, JJ Ramberg and Lisa Everson.

Much of my career was at ABC News, where I was on staff at 20/20, Primetime Live, and Day One. As an associate producer, I developed and produced reports for Robert Krulwich, John Hockenberry, Bob Brown, John Stossel, Barbara Walters, Diane Sawyer, and others.

I’ve also worked at CBS, CNN and CNBC, producing stories and investigative reports on business, the economy, politics, corruption, religion, medicine, and the military.

Along the way I produced several independent documentaries, was an animator on Peewee's Playhouse, and began my career working for filmmaker William Greaves.

I hold a master's degree in American History from Columbia University and a bachelor of arts degree from Yale.
