About me.

I am a writer, director, and producer based in Brooklyn & East Africa. These days, I run Communications for GiveDirectly, perform stand up, and freelance. Before that, I was a co-executive producer, writer, and director on TruTV’s It’s Personal with Amy Hoggart and was a segment director and senior field producer at Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, where I received an Emmy nomination for my writing contributions. In 2015, I wrote and produced a scripted comedy pilot for NBC called "Broker" as part of their NBC Playground competition. I've written for GQ.com, College Humor, Above Average, and the Upright Citizen's Brigade Theater. I worked as a researcher at The Colbert Report and the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Additionally I've written, directed, and produced many independent sketches and a short film. While attending Harvard College, I ran a weekly comedy news show and served on the board of the Hasty Pudding Theatricals. If you don't believe me, watch this.
