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.
