About

Hello, I am a documentary filmmaker, sound recordist, and video producer based in the Bay Area. In a former life I was a Multimedia Producer with KQED/PBS Digital Studios of the Emmy Award winning series ART SCHOOL. Since then, I have formed my own production company MIND•SPACE•TIME that has created short-form video stories in partnership with NY Times, PBS NewsHour, AJ+, Southern Documentary Fund, to name a few. My own documentary films have won awards and screened at many prestigious film festivals around the world including DocLisboa, BFI London Film Festival, International Film Festival Rotterdam, European Media Art Festival, and many more.

    Joel was great to work with. He was very communicative during our planning, and he helped wherever he could on our shoot date. Would definitely work with him again if I’m in San Francisco.

    Joel was great to work with! Highly professional, self-sufficient, reliable, and a pleasure to work with. Excited to work with Joel again next time I'm on the west coast.
