Media Producer for Podcasts & Digital Media Brands
Production instinct isn't something you learn in a studio. It's something you earn in front of a microphone.
Mara Davis brings both sides of the mic to every project. As a seasoned radio and television host turned Media Producer, she understands what guests need to perform and what audiences need to stay. That dual perspective shapes every production decision — from guest strategy and content positioning to pacing, format, and the details that make a show feel effortless.
She works with select brands and creators as a hands-on collaborator, embedded in the process from concept through delivery. Clients have included NPR's Bullseye, Adult Swim, Vox Media, Tenderfoot TV, Campside Media, iHeartMedia, Pineapple Street Studios, and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
