I design experiences for the hard, beautiful parts of being human.

I've spent my career asking the same question in different rooms: how do we make it easier to be with the things we don't know how to face? Sometimes the answer is a pot of soup on a stoop. Sometimes it's a listening bar in a corner of a bar. Sometimes it's sitting with someone at the end of their life. I have a Master's in Oral History from Columbia University, a decade in audio production, including senior work at National Geographic and Grim & Mild Entertainment Inc., I co-founded the DC Death Collective. I go to people. I build containers. I stick around.
