Request QuoteI have told the stories of evicted illegal immigrants, the trials of recovering drug addicts, and the efforts of an entire community to end gang violence. I have documented the struggles and triumphs of homeless teens in Chicago. I have even reported across language barriers to tell the story of religious intolerance amongst Buddhist monks in Myanmar. I'm an editor, photographer, and producer. I mostly cut in Premiere, and I have a solid working knowledge of motion graphics through After Effects. I thrive under tight deadlines, and as a jack-of-all-trades, I am comfortable with all things media and editorial. I am a graduate of the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University, where I spent four years developing my talents in documentary style media production and multimedia storytelling. Nowadays I'm a freelance editor at VICE, having worked on Emmy-nominated series Gaycation, Emmy-nominated VICE on HBO, and Weediquette, amongst other shows.
Jennifer Del Prete spent over nine years in jail for a crime she didn't commit. Now she is attempting to piece her life back together and reconnect with her daughter, Tia, who spent her teenage years growing up without a mother.
A documentary shot in Myanmar with an Eric Lund Research Grant from the Medill School of Journalism. The film explores a controversial and mysterious organization called the MaBaTha, which includes a faction of Buddhist monks whose hate speech has increased discrimination and violence against Muslim minorities.

Kinya "Jonny" Manekineko Aota just opened his fluorescent Japanese curry truck last month. Originally a trained sushi chef, Jonny moonlights at a nearby sushi shop as he gets his business off the ground. He also happens to be a motorcycle enthusiast, spiritual guru and the certified raddest dude in town. His favorite color is not yellow. Produced, shot and edited myself.
