I love traveling, I love adventure, but most of all I love producing video stories. I've been working in video production since 2012 when I started graduate school at the University of Southern California. It was there that I learned the craft of documentaries. I spent two years living in Anchorage, Alaska, traveling around the state producing videos for Alaska Public Media. My videos ranged from mini documentaries for our Indie Alaska series, to underwriting spots for our sponsors. I now freelance out of Southern California. I'm a one-man band. I conceptualize, shoot and edit stories, but always appreciate opportunities to work collaboratively. I'm always looking for the next story to capture through my lens.

I am a writer/producer/editor/fixer based in LA, CA. I work with digital productions companies writing and producing content for non-profits and individuals looking to create anything from explainers to short form narrative films. Most recently, Univision asked Wondros, a company with which I work, to create a piece which would advocate for U.S. immigration reform. I wrote and directed an interactive film that compares a day in the life of an undocumented family to that of a documented family. The project far exceeded Univision’s expectations, reaching almost five million views in its first few days online. It was spontaneously shared by tens of thousands of people as well as the Bernie Sanders campaign.

The aim of my work is to empower communities by connecting their stories. I’ve traveled to the most remote corners of the U.S. filming the impacts of climate change on human lives – families in Arkansas rebuilding after an oil spill, a small town in California’s central valley running out of water.

Past clients include The New York Times, Segal Family Foundation, Tom Steyer, Sir Richard Branson, American Way Magazine, NextGen America, and Barack Obama's 2012 campaign.

From shooting atop 350-ft tall wind turbines to inside caves to the jungles of Central America, I have done a lot of interesting work in some unique situations. I have 12+ years experience as a filmmaker, where I've learned how to do nearly everything myself, including shooting, editing, motion graphics, writing scripts, and presenting/hosting on camera. I have ridden my bicycle across America (twice), creating videos to promote bicycle travel, and have created a 10-episode web series using nothing but stock media. I shoot a lot of nature stock footage with cinema cameras, and create filmmaking tutorials.
