The Story
Two decades,
six chapters.
I’m a producer and media executive. I’ve built a broadcast studio from an empty room, produced three shows a week for four years, grown a YouTube channel from 10,000 to 250,000 subscribers, run seven-figure monthly ad budgets, and raised nearly $1M to found a streaming platform. I’ve hired and led teams of 10+, managed P&L, pitched investors, booked congressmen — and I can still cut an episode myself.
