I am a Denver-based independent producer, people-connector and adventurer. My work has always followed my passion for global issues and social justice. I was the project producer for Cruzada, a film by the Literacy Project about the Nicaraguan National Literacy Campaign. I was also producer and second camera for Still River Silent Jungle, an adventure-sport meets environmental-activism story about one indigenous woman's fight against mega-hydroelectric power in the Bolivian Amazon. Over the years, I have worked on literacy and community projects in Latin American and Latinx communities in the United States, and as a caseworker for refugee families in Denver. I speak fluent Spanish.

Growing up all across the country, I found myself more and more comfortable in foreign places. Moving from one state to the other as a young boy I realized that exploring new places, meeting new people, and experiencing diverse cultures was key to my development as a person. I translate this curiosity into my daily life: work and play. I’m an athlete at heart who found myself becoming more and more enamored with photography. Capturing moments, big and small, to carve out a slice of experiences that constantly mold me. I am always trying to find new ways and new people to capture through the end of a camera lens.

I'll describe myself as an intermediate storyteller. Not a master of the craft, but I'm always looking for the next best way to share a story and hone my skills. I've been on the television side of news for the past 7 years and though I still work in a news environment, I have moved to the online side of it with a local paper in beautiful Colorado Springs. My favorite moments are when I get a story that I know leaves an impact on me and the viewer. Give me a call or email and let me know what I can do to help bring your story to life.

I’m fascinated by issues affecting the outdoor industry and women’s empowerment, and I love the way that film can connect people and tell the unheard stories of people doing incredible things.
