"Bob Boilen believed in me. I was a 23-year-old intern when, in the summer of 2006, he asked me to be a guest on All Songs Considered. I was nervous, but also felt welcomed by this person who in me saw a familiar spark for sonic adventure, coming in from a different territory — "music that has been completely off my radar" was how Bob put it then. When NPR announced that it was expanding its online music coverage that same year, both Bob and Robin Hilton encouraged me to stick around D.C. I've now been at NPR Music for 17 years".
