Hi! Like the bee suit? It's a very important accessory when you're an Associate Producer on Take Two at KPCC.
Before TT, I interned at NPR's All Things Considered, where I made my national radio debut with a report on .XXX domains. That was fun.
I then worked as a temporary producer on the weekend NPR shows for a few months, and moved back to KPCC in Feb. 2012 to join The Madeleine Brand Show. In Oct. 2012 that changed over to the show that I'm on now.
Here are links to some of the stories that I've produced: foie gras donuts, haikus about the summer heat, Christmas tamales, finding lost bees, cryo-bunny whispering, and Facebook hacking.
So, follow me or @ tweet me and we can be friends.
