SNAP JUDGMENT
I have been a producer at the award-winning PRX show Snap Judgment since 2018. During that time I have produced, co-produced, reported, and edited literally dozens of stories.
I won Silver at Third Coast International Audio Festival for “This Is Not a Drill,” the story of Hawaii’s false nuclear alert. I have also produced and edited stories in Spanish, a language I speak, as well as Uzbek and Polish, languages I do not speak.
Scroll down to see a short selection of episodes that I have produced and reported.
