I'm a San Francisco-based storyteller working for a more equal and integrated society. I'm dedicated to challenging taboos and illuminating truths by giving voice to marginalized populations through film. I am in the post-production phase of my SF Film Society-sponsored short documentary, There Is a Place, about a musician who visits various Alzheimer's care facilities in the SF Bay Area. The film explores how contributing to a collective musical sound within a circle of peers brings out presentness, playfulness and a sense of connection in the face of memory loss, loneliness, and the end of life. Aside from my personal film projects, I've worked with corporate, nonprofit and solopreneur clients to deliver compelling videos that serve their messages. These projects include both documentary-style and narrative shorts, and I drive these projects from creative story development to production, direction and post-production.

I am a documentary filmmaker, directing feature length documentary films. I have been working with social justice groups to create media to tell their stories for 12 years. I have produced hundreds of short videos to be shared online. I have been creating media around worker's strikes, election campaigns, etc so I am used to producing videos on tight deadlines. Much of the work I do has a press component; I often provide interviews, photos & broll reels to press. In 2010 when my work supporting immigrant rights communities in my home state of Arizona drew national coverage, I began getting freelance assignments for radio, PBS Jorge Gestoso Investiga, CNN Espanol, NBC National, TeleSur, Democracy Now, Bill Moyers and Al Jazeera's Faultlines (line production). I am an editor so I capture professional video/ audio with all of the components to tell a story. I came to video journalism through advocacy media but I understand the difference.

I am an established, award-winning documentary filmmaker. My last three films were funded by ITVS for PBS. "Maria Goes to the Homeless World Cup" will be a short video about the transformative power of sports meeting the thorny issue of homelessness. This innovative program is achieving results in 50 countries, which are all sending teams of homeless soccer players to the annual HWC. The piece will be timely this summer, during the official World Cup. This is the story of one young woman from Minneapolis, a former prostitute, who is selected to represent the U.S. at the 2013 HWC. We get to know her back home, watch her play, interact with people close to her, and then go abroad as the goalie of the U.S. Womens team. Does the trip actually have an impact on her life? We follow Maria after she returns home to the challenges of daily life. Street Soccer USA, which runs programs in 18 U.S. cities, estimates that 75% of the players find help within a year. Footage is all shot and logged, but not edited. This story will form part of a 1-hour doc about the U.S. Womens team. The link provided below is a sample reel of the entire project, but with plenty of Maria segments.
