Discover Top Reporters / Journalist in Salinas, California, USA

From shooting atop 350-ft tall wind turbines to inside caves to the jungles of Central America, I have done a lot of interesting work in some unique situations. I have 12+ years experience as a filmmaker, where I've learned how to do nearly everything myself, including shooting, editing, motion graphics, writing scripts, and presenting/hosting on camera. I have ridden my bicycle across America (twice), creating videos to promote bicycle travel, and have created a 10-episode web series using nothing but stock media. I shoot a lot of nature stock footage with cinema cameras, and create filmmaking tutorials.

Polyglot Citizen of the World. Misunderstood for being a degree collector. Recent Experiences: Video Journalist at France 24 (TV). Writer on social issues (Web). I enjoy researching and interacting with people to bring a variety of angles to stories. My analysis enables me to rapidly identify the key points of what makes a good story, but most importantly, of what makes a TRUE story. Inspired by a serendipitous meeting with Daw Aung San Suu Kyi in Yangon in 2011, I want to tell the stories of those who are not free from fear. I am well-versed in writing and have a keen interest in relaying stories through the visual medium as well.
