Request a demoHello! I'm a video journalist and documentary filmmaker. I've produced, directed, shot, and edited with PopTech and PopTech partners, including Microsoft, Rockefeller Foundation, Time Warner Cable, eBay, Red Crescent and a handful of NGOs. A graduate of Stanford's Masters in documentary film program, I’m experienced in all aspects of production, including shooting, directing, running sound, creating basic graphics, and editing. I've had the opportunity to work in Bosnia, South Africa, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Haiti, Nicaragua, India, Iceland, and across the US. I'd love to help you on your project.

When it comes to rescue efforts after a disaster, like the 2010 earthquake that killed more than 300,000 Haitians and left a million homeless, we tend to think in terms of teams on the ground. But when whole towns are reduced to rubble and communication systems are down, how can anyone know where people might be buried?

The challenge PopTech faced as they began Project M? South Africa has more HIV positive citizens than any country in the world. In some provinces, more than 40% of the population is infected. Yet only 2% have ever been tested for HIV. Of those who are HIV positive, a mere 10% are receiving anti-retroviral therapy – leaving 90% untreated, infectious and likely to die. poptech.org/project_m_video

When violence threatens to break out on city streets, in the run-up to an election, or in a land dispute, how can community leaders instantly reach out to urge calm and quash false rumors? PopTech teamed up with Sisi Ni Amani in the run up to the 2013 elections in Kenya to drive subscriptions to their novel mobile violence prevention service and craft behavior-change SMS messaging models.

How can data help, and possibly hurt communities in times of upheaval? A group of key innovators in the fields of data and computer science, the arts, and the humanitarian and ecological spheres collaborated on a fresh approach that emphasizes ethics as a central — and often overlooked — factor in building community resilience.

Pat Boone, an elderly sheep herder, lived alone, barely scrounging by, and yet also bore the responsible of his wheelchair-bound sister. He could barely afford the kerosene he needed. Shot on the Navajo Nation where we were invited, thanks to the prototype project we were developing using flexible portable solar cells to generate light or charge phones or flashlight batteries. 1 of 6 profiles.

For many of the world’s poorest communities, the adverse effects of climate change impact women and girls the hardest. Red Crescent produced a game that illustrates the role of gender in climate disasters + the role of insurance in protecting crops in the face of the unknown. The game has been played hundreds of times by communities with which the Red Crescent and other organizations work.
