A lifelong storyteller, relentlessly curious and driven by a passion to break the mold, innovate and challenge the status quo. An uncanny ability to find a compelling story angle in any assignment or opportunity, big or small from covering the Hollywood red carpet interviewing the world’s biggest stars, to scouring the world’s biggest tradeshows as a reporter finding stories of innovation in the everyday and ordinary, to creating, writing and producing new shows and storytelling approaches, to exec producing original commissions and developing and producing content in the brand space. As a reporter, host and MC, Christian’s easy manner and empathetic nature allow him to build trust quickly with interviewees, from A level talent to CEOs and industry leaders, to those less comfortable in front of a crowd or camera. He has a rare ability to put people at ease and open them up, engaging in thoughtful conversation, drawing out insights through well researched questions.

I am a Bulgaria-born, Chicago-bred, Brooklyn-based photojournalist, editor and writer, driven by a passion for creative visuals, science, technology, climate change, the economic and political state of the world, art, architecture, anthropology, the beauty of the written word, and the true sense of equality. I aim to create and curate visuals with style and meaning — whether in a historic context or just beyond the surface of mundanity. What's more, as an immigrant to U.S. shores, I very much care to bridge humans’ understanding of one another — and most of all, connect the work I do as a woman in a male-dominated industry behind the camera, to how women manage in the world in front of it. My current and past clients, both across the States and the world, have included National Geographic, The Washington Post, The New York Times, Getty Images, Reuters, NPR, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, The Chronicle of Higher Education, THE CITY, Bloomberg, Yahoo News, AFP, Rolling Stone, Nature, Discover, New York magazine, Sports Illustrated, Newsweek, TIME, USA Today and the Chicago Tribune, among others. I have received awards from PDN’s Photo Annual, NPPA, American Photography and TED's Visualizing Climate Change contests; grants to further my projects from the National Geographic Society, the Pulitzer Center, the International Women's Media Foundation, Getty Images + Panasonic Lumix and Leica Camera; and have exhibited my work via Photoville, Leica Camera, the International Center of Photography and Bulgaria's National Gallery of Art. I have also taught journalism and photography courses and led workshops through the Pulitzer Center, Brooklyn Public Library, NYU, The School of The New York Times/Fordham University, and Leica Camera USA. No matter the time zone or topic, you could find me at x or +1.x.

Giancarlo Mariutto was raised to play professional tennis in Wesley Chapel, FL and when that didn’t work out, he made his way to NYC, where the nearest tennis court was unaffordable. Since then, he has created Emmy award-winning content for Disney, Discovery Films, Nickelodeon, PBS, Cartoon Network, and Comedy Central. He’s most proud of his work with the US Department of Education, developing educational programming for low-income households. Outside his career in media, Giancarlo enjoys performing comedy at NYC theaters that used to exist, like the UCB and PIT. For the sheer fun of it, he gives tours as a licensed New York City sightseeing guide and hopes to someday trap you at a party to talk about how a 13-mile island grew from a rickety Dutch trading post to the world's greatest metropolis.
