My name is Anna, I'm a freelance videographer, camera assistant, and editor in Denver. My background is in journalism. Working creatively to connect people, share what's important and uncover solutions — I'm here for it. Some of my most animated moments in journalism happened while working in Washington, D.C., creating short documentary style content covering social justice issues. I solved problems in the field to turn content on same-day deadlines, and developed longer projects. I've also taken on roles on teams as an assistant camera, production assistant, videographer, and editor. I enjoy learning more about various types of productions from commercial to narrative. My longterm goal is to grow in cinematography and editing and work on a documentary team, because what I really enjoy is collaboration and learning from creators around me.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a storyteller and my work reflects that part of myself. From contemporary affairs through journalism to creative short stories, I aim to engage viewers and provide a true understanding of important issues in our media driven culture. I’ve had a varied media career over the past 10 years. Commercial photo illustrator, travel photographer, web designer, and videographer are just a few of the hats I’ve worn… even a short stint as a goat ranch hand. This range (herding pun intended) of experience has provided insight into media across platforms and some pretty crazy adventures too. My digital diversity and subsequent long hours with various media software directed me straight to a true passion in animation and motion graphics. I can’t imagine finding something I enjoy more or work harder at.

Experienced photographer, videographer, and overall media enthusiast. Enjoying life on the road as my fiance and I travel across the country, documenting America's unsung Heroes for our Quality Thrives web series. My career in media started in the fields of design/marketing, which I still use as my primary source of income (freelancer). I gained experience in photography during my years of college, which led to exciting opportunities such as shooting two seasons of New York Fashion Week as well as other business-related events. While I love being behind the camera, my true passion lies within finding the deep, unusual stories that wouldn't typically be covered by the main-stream media. I firmly believe that the average, everyday-individuals that we're surrounded by are the ones who have the compelling stories to tell - and it's my goal to document as many as possible.

My passion for storytelling has taken me all over the world - from the top of Mt St Helens to the epicenter of a nuclear disaster in Japan. I have more than a decade of experience reporting, both domestically and internationally. Most recently, I worked as a Tokyo-based correspondent for ABC News, covering everything from the tsunami and Fukushima nuclear disaster, to the conflict on the Korean peninsula. Prior to my time in Asia, I spent 5 years in Seattle, as a general assignment reporter. While my background is in television, I absolutely love working across platforms, filing stories for radio, digital, and print. I often work as a "one-man-band", shooting on a Canon 5D, and working with a Zoom H4 recorder. My work has been featured on ESPN, the BBC, Public Radio International, The Wall Street Journal, Al Jazeera America, CNN, and NHK.
