Ive been telling stories for as long as I can remember. Ive crafted narratives through painting, told tales through music and songwriting and chronicled the voices of local artists, farmers, and activists through writing. My muse remains the same: everyday, ordinary people doing the best they can to make a difference in their communities. Ive been telling their stories for over 14 years. My degree in Interactive Media has made it possible to merge all my enthusiasms: visual aesthetics, audio, and storytelling. I like to think of it as creating stories with a pulse. Nothing excites me more than developing projects for companies who are working to create positive change.
