Now that my award-winning doc "Rock the Boat - Saving America's Wildest River" is in distribution, I'm ready to tackle short-format stories that focus on the hidden workings of our democracy. From how a vote gets to the local city council floor to where your water comes from, there are endless hidden details that support the workings of our world. I believe it's an imperative in today's society to know how we get to where we are on a daily basis. I'm a quick editor and a charming host, with a good sense of timing and music, and great comedic timing.

“Art isn’t supposed to be pretty. It’s supposed to make you feel something.” That’s something I always strive for in my work - visually or written. I want to bring your ideas to life, however unconventional they are. Blurry or crisp images, steady or hand held videos, messy poetry or organized prose- whatever you want, I will deliver. Creating is what brings me joy, and if you would like to embark on this adventure, tag along. :)
