About Me

A seasoned media professional, Heath brings experience in television production, digital video, podcasting, and social media to every project.

In 2020, Heath launched the podcast and newsletter Willoughby Hills, which digs into our evolving relationship to community, the natural world, our built environments, nostalgia, our health, and the food we grow and eat.  The show has featured interviews with Nick Offerman, Scott Foley, Roy Wood Jr, Desi Lydic, Ginger Zee and many more.

Heath has worked with organizations large and small to produce everything from social media content, preroll video spots, podcasts, educational content, and writing. He has worked with Fidelity Investments, Offrange, Here 4 The Kids, Ed Inquiry, The Hartsbrook School, Building Bridges, and many other organizations large and small.

Heath spent 15 years at This Old House Productions, serving as Senior Producer and Director of Ask This Old House, where he set the strategy and creative direction for the long-running PBS show.  Heath managed and coordinated all areas of production: casting, story selection and development, production crew, post-production, promotions, and digital.

Heath has earned two Daytime Emmy Awards and a total of ten nominations.

Heath graduated from Emerson College in Boston with a Bachelor of Arts degree in TV/Video, but his work in video began at an early age.  In high school, he produced and hosted Neighborhood Freak Show with his friends, a cable access show that aired throughout Northeast Ohio.  He now lives in Massachusetts with his wife and two young children.

Heath is eager to help bring your creative ideas to life. Please reach out for a conversation!
