I have had two parallel career tracks: one in public radio, the other as a government/military worker or civilian contractor. In radio I prepared and hosted music shifts and news shifts, interviewed arts, science, and political figures, written scripts and web posts, and engineered live broadcasts. For the US government, I spent 4 years as an Army linguist, three years in the Foreign Service, and 2 years as a civilian contractor for the US Army in the Balkans.

From 2006-2020 I hosted, wrote, and produced a daily public radio show in Milwaukee, Wisconsin – Lake Effect.

In 2020, I became the program director for North Country Public Radio.
