My name is Jay Denson and I'm a recent graduate of the Columbia School of Journalism. As a native New Yorker, I covered everything from Occupy Wall Street to Hurricane Sandy. My particular stories of interest are sports, health, fitness and Human Interest. For my Master Thesis, I covered the evolution of pole dancing and the popularity of the genre. I also covered the inauguration of CitiBike. Getting reaction from opponents and residents in favor of the project. I also did a profile on Captain Dave about the fishing decline in Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn, NY. I received honors during the 2012 Fall semester for that project. I follow the trends. I will hunt for stories that's most engaging to the community. What's popular? Why are they upset? How an event is affecting residents. That is my specialty.

I am a multimedia journalist who has been reporting at the intersection of food, culture, and economics for seven years. New York has proven to be such a rich vein for this kind of storytelling that I've built my freelance career with profiles, features, and long-form stories on food, cooks, producers, consumers, immigrants, urban history, and the ever-changing communities of the city. In 2012 I produced, filmed, and edited an award-winning documentary on the first commercial "sugar shack" of Quebec. I am now working on a second documentary, about the unusual success and unfortunate fate of a hole-in-the-wall diner in Albany, California. My ongoing web video series, "1 Minute Meal", invites viewers to leave the glamorized world of chefs, famous restaurants, and critics to experience more essential moments in New York's food culture.
