I'm an author, journalist, writer/director/producer who's produced over 200 non-fiction television shows for outlets such as The History Channel, Discovery, PBS, etc. In order to sharpen my skill as a shooter, I shot a 13 part travel series for PBS. Thought that was a better than taking a weekend course. As an investigative reporter I've uncovered numerous hidden stories about nuclear accidents, pollution and other environmental issues. I've covered the automotive industry for years and have won awards for my history of the automobile. I've served on the board and executive committee of the International Documentary Association (IDA), am a member of the DGA, the WGA, TV Academy and Motor Press Guild.

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.

My documentary origin story is an unlikely one. I graduated from Skidmore College with a degree in Modern Dance and Creative Writing. After a colorful stint as an au pair in France, I made my way to the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies in Portland, ME where I studied radio and multimedia production. It wasn’t long before I was hooked. On I went to NPR and PRX's State of the Re:Union where I worked on an hour of stories about transgender life in America. Then, I came to NPR West in Los Angeles to work as a Production Intern for Weekend All Things Considered. And now, I'm taking off across the United States with my partner and collaborator, Steven B. Jackson, in search of our country's untold stories.

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. I documented the United Nations conference on climate change in Paris and flew over the Alberta Tar Sands, giving voice to a First Nations community living downstream from one of the worst ecological disasters in the world. 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.

I have worked as a cinematographer, editor, and producer in the action sports industry for 16 years. My goal is to create content that is not only visually stimulating, but that also brings out the emotion of the viewer and tells the whole story. I started off my career in the surf industry and over time it has blossomed into creating content for a wide range of acton sports. Mountain Biking, Surfing, Skating, FMX, Wake boarding, Snowboarding, Rally car, and MMA are not only sports I enjoy watching, but have been fortunate enough to have been able to shoot and produce fresh content diving deep into the lives of these professional athletes.

Videography has always been a passion of mine. I have been interested in all aspects of videography since Junior High. I currently have a 4 year degree in the field and constantly expanding my skills to further assist my video work. Some of these skills are music composition, vfx, writing and graphic design. I also enjoy matte painting, programming and audio engineering. My wife is at least assisting on my projects because I love to have multiple insights and love her talents. She's an excellent color grader, writer, photographer and graphic design artist! She has a more realistic approach to her art as mine is more Disney or World of War Craft style.

I'm a documentary/commercial filmmaker. I've been shooting now for over 10 years on everything from low/no budget to big budget productions. I started my own rigging company about 6 years ago, but I enjoy filmmaking more than running a business. Among many projects, building our own electric car has been one that's kept us entertained the last year, and I plan to integrate that into filmmaking projects coming up. I'm always excited for what's coming next and I embrace and learn a lot from every situation. Problem solving is what I do best, it really doesn't matter what type of problem it is. Hope we get to work on a project together soon.
