Early Risers

Senior Producer (Seasons 2-4)

Early Risers is an interview podcast from Minnesota Public Radio that offers guidance to parents and caregivers on how to talk with very young children about race and racism.

I led and executed all aspects of podcast production with a focus on elevating the podcast’s audio quality and production value as well as experimenting with a special in-depth series highlighting the lived experiences of parents across Minnesota. I helped a new host to develop her voice by writing scripts that reflected her conversational style and POV. I booked and prepped interviews with national and regional experts and edited and scored episodes in Pro Tools. I also produced live events as well as an hour-long public radio broadcast special that aired in 100+ stations across the United States.
