Hey, I’m Paul Detrick, an award-winning video journalist, producer and editor who’s covered DNA in crime fighting, sex work, niche subcultures, city planning, and copyright. I’m interested in underreported history, cultural phenomenas and digging through archives of practically anything, including court dockets.

With over a decade of experience, I’ve learned to report, producer, edit and handle a camera. I’m passionate about digital video and over-the-years have developed a reputation for producing wildly different work that grabs people’s attention.

I am based in Washington, D.C., where I am working as a Senior Video Journalist at Bloomberg Industry Group.
