From 2011-2017 I helped produce 99% Invisible, a radio show about architecture and design. This happened because I somehow convinced Roman Mars to let me move across the country to work for him out of a very small shed behind his house. After five and a half years with the show, and growing the operation from two people in a shed, to ten people with an office and millions of downloads, it felt time to do something else.

Here are some of my favorite episodes I made for the show:

How to build an American city of God

An unlikely way to make a community whole

The design of a thing to hold dangerous information

The terror and the promise of self-driving cars

A skyscraper, a crisis, and a secret plan to save it. Reported with Joel Werner. Winner of the 2015 Third Coast International Audio Festival award for Best Documentary (Bronze).

The secret syntax of palm trees

The immutable architecture of Pizza Hut

How to send a warning 10,000 years into the future. Reported with Matt Kielty.

On the social power of grass

The ethics of building prisons
