podcast producer. educator. playlist maker.

 

Hey! I’m Alexis Haut. I am a podcast producer and consultant, writer and instructional design consultant based in Brooklyn. I spent seven years teaching, leading teachers and coaching basketball in middle schools in Brooklyn and Newark before independently producing my first podcast series New York, I Love You But You’ve Changed in 2018. I also produced the 2019 B Free Award Winning podcast, Appropriate: Stories from the Grey Area of Consuming Culture. I sometimes write about sports and stuff. In December of 2020, the pilot of my original show Ball is Business ran as a finalist in iHeartRadio’s Next Great Podcast competition. The show is an investigative look at the long con that is high school basketball recruitment.

I previously worked as a Senior Producer at Fortune Media, where I produced the Signal Award Winning podcast Where’s My Village? I am now back in the freelance grind!

I’m also a Master’s Candidate in Film and Media Cultures at the CUNY Graduate Center.

I love hip hop, watching movies and TV shows as soon as they air (I hate being left out of cultural conversations), Rihanna, New York Magazine (I’ve read every issue published since 2007), summer, movies, making playlists, journalism, music journalism, and music videos.

I value community (joining and building) and working on any and all projects that prioritize equity and culture. I am a tri-state area girl with a B.A. in Journalism from the University of Georgia. Hit me up if you want to work together!
