I have worked in journalism for eight years, branching often into marketing and sponsored content. At my core I am a storyteller, specializing in cinematography. As a field producer I have risen to challenges in many austere environments, including Iraq, Korea, India, Mexico and Standing Rock. I have also done on-camera correspondent work for documentary projects in Haiti and across the United States. I believe documentary filming is simple, but not easy. I don't wait for inspiration; I keep a camera ready for when it comes. I toil at the technical, ace the audio and prioritize verité. I know how to find the perfect shot, but I'm Zen enough to settle for good if chasing it might disturb the honest vibe of a scene. If the video feels true, I know the work is worthy. When I'm not in the field, I'm happiest sharing what I've learned with others. I've taught college students as well as working professionals, typically offering hands-on field production and editing skills. As a Marine veteran, I also mentor service members through their transition to civilian life - especially those angling for careers in journalism. I believe veterans are under-represented in the media industry, and they offer a diversity of experience and first-hand knowledge that is invaluable to newsrooms.
Here's a compilation of my multimedia production work. It includes a sneak peak at my investigative documentary "Rigged," which comes out in December. This reel also features my work from Haiti and from my time as a Marine Corps video producer.

Since 2015, almost all healthcare organizations have reported at least one cyberattack. The largest U.S. hospital attacked in the U.S. 2017 was Erie County Medical Center in Buffalo, New York, and they're still feeling the effects.

Children were uniquely victimized by ISIS. First, as bystanders caught in a brutal war, but more shockingly, as soldiers who were recruited, indoctrinated with a deadly ideology, then trained to kill and fight on the battlefield. As they are freed from ISIS, traumatized and untreated, they're now melting back into society -- still heavily influenced by their experience.
