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 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."
