I am a French-Tunisian journalist living in New York. It has been five years now. I started as a radio reporter, nine years ago, covering international news and anything related to minorities in France. Now, I cover women and girls issues for the New-York based publication Women's eNews. More recently, I started to freelance as a VJ for AJ+. I love videos and photos which is why I prefer to produce multimedia content whenever it is possible. Also I don't know how to stay away from hard news which is why I spend a lot of my time checking social media. Some think I am addicted. But I think a lot of my fellow journalists suffer from this addiction.

Feel good stories, stories from the heart. I'm great at telling emotional stories. Could be sad stories about folks going through difficulties, I've produced, directed and edited a ton of them. From Pediatric Cancer, to autism, to special needs kids and kidney patient videos. I've gotten quite emotional stories from folks and cut them together. I'm a former CNN, MTV, CBS, and FOX editor and producer. Great interviews, then I take them and cut them myself. I own a Cannon 5D mark III and can shoot them, although I prefer a cameraman DP with me. I'm not the graphics guy, I'm the story teller when it comes to post. Love to have a coffee

I was 6 years old when my parents bought home a brand new Panasonic VHS Camcorder. Being able to film and watch back everything we did that day was the greatest feeling in the world. I've made it my mission to make as many movies as I could growing up. To me, there is nothing more powerful than capturing the world and preserving moments. I’ve dedicated my life to providing professional video services and helping people remember their most important days. Today I work for a national television company producing a TV show with a 4 person crew, as well as run my own videography company producing primarily wedding videos.

While working at a 3D printer manufacturer, my natural sense of curiosity collided with a passion for creative storytelling, and, as a salesperson, I picked up a camera and started recording interviews with our customers. I got my start telling a diverse range of stories about 3D printer applications - from dinosaur bone preservation to bronze casting - and have since honed my ability to find the story and craft a compelling narrative in a variety of fields. I'm equally comfortable working solo as I am collaborating with larger teams, and my can-do attitude and curiosity has served me well capturing stories in a variety of different industries.
