After COVID-19 disrupted academia, I launched Rossin Connection for the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science at Lehigh University. I produce and host the show, which explores the world of engineering.
Measles used to be the virus that dominated the news. I reported a two-part series for WHYY in Philadelphia, about why the disease made such a comeback, and local protection measures here in the Lehigh Valley.
For The Pulse, a weekly health and science show on WHYY, I explored the idea of calling little girls beautiful, and the perils of chafing for runners (starts at 42:33).
I conceived, launched, managed, and coproduced The Runner’s World Show (TRWS), a multi-segment, weekly podcast that entertained, inspired, and informed listeners about all things running.
The show placed second in People’s Choice for the 2017 Webby awards. Its 70 episodes have been downloaded more than 2.9 million times.
A few of my favorite episodes:
Episode 9: Running with Dogs
We hit the roads with high energy pups to learn why the Dog Trotters program is such an important practice at Providence Animal Center in Media, Pennsylvania.
Episode 36: Life at the Back of the Pack
I ran a 10-K to see what makes the Sub-30 running group so motivational.
Episode 43: Eating Disorders and Running
This episode began with a survey we built and disseminated through our social channels to get a sense of specific behaviors in our community. It was one of our most downloaded episodes.
Episode 60: The Secrets of Peak Performance
A chronically injured coworker endures the forearms of a masterful massage therapist to learn why he’s always in pain.
Episode 66: Air Force Tested
My colleague and I went to the Pentagon to take the Air Force physical fitness test to see how our different training approaches translated into whole body fitness.
Episode 70: A Crazy Run
What it takes to be a really, really good beer miler.

I helped launch and edit Human Race, a longform storytelling show about runners and the world of running. The show was created, hosted, and produced by the amazing Rachel Swaby.
Episode 9: Close to Home
Rachel made me get in front of the mic to confront my mother’s devastating disease.

I created and produced a four-episode, branded health and wellness show for the publishing company, Rodale, to highlight the company's health and fitness titles.
I attended the Transom Traveling Workshop in Marfa, Texas, and had the honor of interviewing a retired National Park Service employee turned environmental activist whose profound connection to the natural world has, literally, kept him alive. My profile of Roger Siglin aired on Marfa public radio.
