I was born and raised in San Diego, California and now live on Lenape land in Queens, New York. I am a reader, a researcher, a listener, a collector, a cyclist, an audio producer, a badminton player, and many more things. 

Driven by a curiosity for the world around me, my aim is to create and share means of understanding our surroundings. Currently, I am channeling this through an independent study of oral history method and deepening my practice with short-form audio. 

Contextual thinking is a foundational value of my work. As an undergraduate at UC Berkeley, I completed degrees in History and Spanish Languages, Literatures, and Cultures. My senior thesis explored the Olimpiada Popular, a protest event hosted in 1936 in Barcelona as an alternative to the IOC games taking place in Berlin. Though the Olimpiada gained widespread support among the international community, it was abruptly cancelled before the opening ceremony due to the outbreak of the coup that marked the beginning of the Spanish Civil War. My research presented an attempt to situate the Olimpiada within its own social context, and was recognized with High Honors by the History department. 

During these years, I also sought connection to my passion for cultural media. I worked as a festival affairs intern with the Center for Asian American Media in San Fransisco ahead of CAAMFest 2018, and as a communications intern with Hip Hop Caucus in Washington D.C., where I helped launch the multimedia climate justice platform Think 100%. 

From 2019 to 2023, I worked with Men in Blazers, a multimedia brand, television show, and podcast foregrounding the pluralistic identities of American soccer culture.  As a scriptwriter and producer, I learned the ropes of audiovisual production. I scripted, produced, and edited interviews, digital features, and a suite of podcasts with an array of guests including Arsene Wenger, Roy Hodgson, John Oliver, and Big Boi. I covered football's shutdown during the Coronavirus pandemic, the 2021 European Championships, the 2022 World Cup, two Champions League campaigns, and four Premier League seasons start to finish. During Men in Blazers' transition to a fully independent media network, I developed and piloted a number of podcasts that remain in regular publication today. 

Since 2023, I have worked as a freelance producer in the digital media industry. 

With The HISTORY Channel, I supported the productions of the flagship History This Week and Sports History This Week podcasts, researching archival stories such as court packing or more recent history, like the fallout between a hot dog eating contest and its greatest champion. 

With Apple TV, Major League Soccer, and Rain Delay Media, I piloted the first two seasons of Offside, documenting everything from Lionel Messi's arrival to the United States to the league's creative revival.  

With NPR and Major League Baseball, I produced the limited series Road to Rickwood, working closely with community members in Birmingham, Alabama to tell the story of America's oldest baseball stadium and its interactions with civil rights history. Since publication, Road to Rickwood was recognized with a Regional Murrow Award, awarded with a Silver Medal  in the Limited History Series category of the Signal Awards, and included among The Atlantic's 20 Best Podcasts of 2024.

Presently, I am working on an audio investigation in San Diego for Inkstick and Things That Go Boom, coming September 2025. 

Outside of work, my view is busier is always better. My writing about football has appeared with MUNDIAL Magazine and Football Case Study, examining narratives of the sport's history in topics like punk icon Nina Hagen's performance at the 2001 Pokalfinale and ephemeral media. I hold volunteer roles with Empowerment Avenue, helping offer hands-on support to incarcerated writers and creatives, as well as Interference Archive, a community archive of social movements. 

My personal creative practice began in high school with analog photography, which became a testing ground for personal and professional documentary and a practice space for archival procedure. Over the past two years, I have experimented with utilizing this archive as a means of a self-preservation through video collaging. I produce abstract audio shorts in my spare time; this year my piece titled AMTRAK DRAMA was recognized as a finalist in Audio Flux Circuit 05. 

If I am not tied up in any of the above, you will likely find me in one of New York's public parks, playing soccer, riding bikes, reading books, taking field recordings, or in a hammock.
