While my past jobs I was able to dabble in video production, Parade.com is where I really found my footing. I was even promoted to content director where I oversaw all video and social media creation for the brand. I’ve done some of our most-watched interviews, hosted games, produced viral videos, starred in goofy social skits, mentored interns through their first interviews, and for some reason poured ranch on my face.

We’ve had several different strategies and eras in making content for Parade. I’m proud to say we’ve alway stayed true to the brand that celebrates pop culture and every day.

I was part of the team that launched Vulture.com on TikTok. We came up with newsy skits and discussed what we could do with video interviews that were coming in.

I love creating for digital-native audiences. Beyond on-set hosting, I oversaw social-first interview segments from end to end—handling scripting, production, and interviewing to deliver content that truly clicked with younger viewers.

I became an experienced interviewer and media professional with a track record of interviewing high-profile talent and public figures—including Trevor Noah at the Daily Show’s Presidential Twitter Library. Experienced in both on-camera interviewing and segment prep, notably for the Vulture Lounge at New York Comic Con 2017.

When I get the chance I also star in the videos, like in ‘Non-Tech People Try Out The New IPhone.’ Being an Android user, I uh, accidentally made myself the star of that video....

Devon Does Stuff is a weird experimental video blog I did to learn more about creating long form media. I think it was legally required of anyone who moved to Brooklyn after art school. I ended up teaching myself how to film, edit with premiere, direct, write scripts, interview, and make my friends do dumb stuff with me. Each week I would come up with a topic, skit, or activity. Ok, sometimes I had no idea what I was going to do until we started. Here are some of my favorite videos.
