My documentary origin story is an unlikely one. I graduated from Skidmore College with a degree in Modern Dance and Creative Writing. After a colorful stint as an au pair in France, I made my way to the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies in Portland, ME where I studied radio and multimedia production. It wasn’t long before I was hooked. On I went to NPR and PRX's State of the Re:Union where I worked on an hour of stories about transgender life in America. Then, I came to NPR West in Los Angeles to work as a Production Intern for Weekend All Things Considered. And now, I'm taking off across the United States with my partner and collaborator, Steven B. Jackson, in search of our country's untold stories.

I am a filmmaker with an intense passion for storytelling whether it be, documentaries, music videos, films, web series, etc. Having lived in places like San Diego, Scotland, Los Angeles, and the Philippines, has given me the amazing opportunity to discover the world and widened my perspective. I love stories that show the power of the human spirit in which people stay positive in the worst of situations. Creativity is a big interest of mine, exposing people's unique skills through video is incredibly inspiring. Finally I love working with people and learning new ways of expressing my ideas. This medium has given me the opportunity to learn so much about cultures, religions, people, injustices, and so much that I want to continue to progress and make content that matters.

The aim of my work is to empower communities by connecting their stories. I’ve traveled to the most remote corners of the U.S. filming the impacts of climate change on human lives – families in Arkansas rebuilding after an oil spill, a small town in California’s central valley running out of water. I documented the United Nations conference on climate change in Paris and flew over the Alberta Tar Sands, giving voice to a First Nations community living downstream from one of the worst ecological disasters in the world. Past clients include The New York Times, Segal Family Foundation, Tom Steyer, Sir Richard Branson, American Way Magazine, NextGen America, and Barack Obama's 2012 campaign.

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.

I'm a documentary/commercial filmmaker. I've been shooting now for over 10 years on everything from low/no budget to big budget productions. I started my own rigging company about 6 years ago, but I enjoy filmmaking more than running a business. Among many projects, building our own electric car has been one that's kept us entertained the last year, and I plan to integrate that into filmmaking projects coming up. I'm always excited for what's coming next and I embrace and learn a lot from every situation. Problem solving is what I do best, it really doesn't matter what type of problem it is. Hope we get to work on a project together soon.

Story-telling is most important to me. I approach each project as if it's a life of its own, making each frame count and bringing out the best in my subjects. I am also a DP so understanding the shot process and what naturally comes next is second nature. My experience in a wide range of industries including sports, food, art, music, fashion, documentary, and lifestyle allows me to quickly grasp the culture and goals of the client in order to get right to work. I believe two heads are better than one so I welcome collaboration. Overall, I believe in my ability to make a lot with a little while maintaining the highest quality possible.
