I come from print and television where I held professional positions and continue to work both as a feature journalist and an independent producer. I love stories that delight and entertain, while they tell us something new about ourselves and the world.
I believe in creating supportive environments where professionalism, creativity and camaraderie win and risks can be taken. I started Via Atalanta Productions to weave my experiences as a new American into my storytelling, and help fellow newcomers find their place. I'm looking for the right people and opportunities to bring those stories to life.
Unique traits: I write and produce news magazines. Especially the half-hour, wrap-around format with studio taped host. In 2013 I created an independent lifestyle magazine series called "Life in A New World," which I also hosted and edited (FCP X). I am an excellent booker and craft insightful interviews (I managed to wake up Robert Duvall at a press junket). I get things done. I am fluent in Italian.
