Jeremiah has been directly involved in the production of hundreds of podcast episodes and has overseen or been directly involved in the production of thousands of videos. Most of his work has to do with music, comedy, culture, or lifestyle subjects and tends to be of a documentary or performance nature. If you would like to see additional work samples, please do not hesitate to ask.

Recently, he's been working as a contractor on various podcast and video projects while also running a project incubator that he founded to help artists and producers make and release their work.

Before that, he spent a decade rebuilding a podcast, video, and editorial platform from the ground up and inside out – from branding, UX, and CMS to production, post-production, and distribution workflows. He also previously ran an independent music and arts venue in New York City while freelancing in various film, television, and media jobs – both production and post-production.

"I've worked closely with Jeremiah on several projects related to the brands I oversee, including a podcast for Better Homes & Gardens that I hosted. Jeremiah is an incredible creative partner, collaborator, and executor. He has great ideas and knows how to get things done. He also remains calm in tricky moments (e.g. walking a guest through tech support). I look forward to partnering with him again soon."

"Jeremiah has helped us level up all aspects of our video production. In addition to creating excellent edited content out of our archival materials, he has greatly improved our streaming video program, Archive Dive... Jeremiah has also proved excellent at the project management aspects of producing and directing the program. He is professional, skilled, and great to work with!"

"Jeremiah and I have been colleagues for over 13 years. He is a wonderful collaborator, problem solver, and of course, podcast producer. Jeremiah is a jack of all trades; he is quick to learn new skills in order to adapt to the ever changing media landscape. His thoughtful and creative approach to production makes him one of the best in the industry. I highly recommend him for all things audio, including script writing, editing, and audio engineering."
