Hi, I’m Lily. I’m a podcast producer, composer, and sound designer in San Francisco.

I’ve created podcasts solo, worked with teams, experimented with otherworldly soundscapes, and created rich, narrative nonfiction (and a little fiction too!)

I'd like to help your projects move listeners to connect deeply with the stories you want to tell.

Marsification

Marsification: A tale of planetary grief is a concept album and audio artwork that tackles the seductive story of leaving Earth for Mars. Across 16 vignettes, my collaborator, Zara Zimbardo, and I ask listeners to explore their fantasies of space colonization as well as our relationship to our home planet with wonder, play, and a critical lens. Visit our magical website to immerse yourself in this rich, expansive project.

KCRW’s 24 Hour Radio Race

Each year, KCRW in Los Angeles puts on a contest to create a 4 minute radio story in 24 hours in response to a prompt we don’t see until the contest begins. It’s incredibly challenging and fun and I’m so proud of the work that’s come from it.
