From fall 2012 through summer 2021, Home & Family graced living rooms five days a week, two hours each morning. I was there from day one, earning three Emmy nominations and keeping the Avid smoking hot until I finally remembered to go home.

The show never lost its Muppet energy, and it always had a “let’s put on a show and save the theater” spirit to it. Most mornings on set were a sprint: we’d film anything that couldn’t happen entirely live, which meant fast cuts, quick turnarounds, and pieces that were sometimes still being finished as on-camera talent began introducing them. Although the show was produced live-to-tape, the final 83-minute, 30-second broadcast was edited to the frame within a very short window after production wrapped each day.

Below is just a small sample of the pieces I edited, produced, directed – or some combination of the three – over the course of more than 1700 episodes.
