Hi, I’m Jillian.
I am a journalist, filmmaker and editorial strategist telling stories across platforms, with a focus on social-first audiences.
Case Studies
Stay Tuned
NBC News
Stay Tuned is NBC’s Gen Z–focused news brand. I led a team producing content across social platforms, with a strong emphasis on YouTube strategy.
Great Big Story
CNN
When CNN set out to reach younger audiences, it launched Great Big Story, a digital brand focused on short-form social video. I was one of the earliest hires.
Squarespace
Branded video
I’ve led branded and sponsored content projects, developing editorial-style campaigns aligning brand goals with meaningful storytelling across platforms.
More Work I Do

New York City
I am a licensed NYC tour guide and lead LGBTQ+ history walks, drawing from archival research to share stories that shaped queer life before and beyond Stonewall.
