I'm a videojournalist, writer, and editor based in New York City with experience freelancing in Brazil, Paris, Mexico, and China.

My videos have ended up at international news agencies, local media, music labels, NGOs and universities. Although I grew up in the inner-cities, today I strive to live on the inside of the outer world: ready to pitch unique local stories, investigate dangerous curiosities, and cross the borders necessary according to the latest assignment.
