I've produced and directed stories for VICE Media, ESPN Deportes, ABC, HBO and a bunch of online properties. In addition to producing and directing, I shoot, write, edit and am comfortable in front of the camera. I'm certified in hostility training, first aid and first response. If it involves travel, foreign languages, and anything related to Culture, politics, music, sports, cute animals or has major historical implications, I'm in. I'd love to help you tell your next story.

I'm a documentary filmmaker and camerawoman with a passion for social justice. Armed with little more than a camera and backpack, I have traveled the world documenting stories from the margins, inspired by legions of women, workers, activists and young people dedicating their lives and loves to social change. From Aids orphans in Kenya, green truck drivers in Long Beach, grandmother abalone divers in Japan and maids in Las Vegas, I'm constantly inspired by stories that not only move us, but move us to action. My films have won awards in film festivals and my work been broadcast on PBS, Al Jazeera, BBC and CBC, but I am most proud of the work I am now doing with GlobalGirl Media, www.globalgirlmedia.org, a non-profit which empowers young women from under-served communities in digital journalism. Speak English, Swahili and French.

I consider myself to be detail focused, professional and deeply creative.

I have been honing my skills in editing, color correction, sound design, and more in a variety of programs including Adobe Premier, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, but it is my gifts as a visual storyteller that sets me apart. As a graduate of NYU’s film program and working filmmaker, the most important thing I focus on for the viewer is tapping into my innate sense of rhythm of emotional imagery. I priotize engaging the viewer in a seemingly effortless way. Recent work includes being a lead editor for a video podcast called MilkDrunk. Besides editing their 45 minute episodes, I worked in After Effects to craft visually dynamic intros, outros, and social cut downs which all adhered to the brand’s aesthetic. I also edit short-form documentaries and other motion-graphic heavy commercials, and had to optimize them for both web and instagram formats.
