I am an educator and award-winning independent film director and producer based in San Francisco with years of experience creating documentary, branded content, and commercial video work. I have always been attracted to the power of visual media and its potential to not only entertain but to inspire, enlighten, and create positive impact through powerful storytelling. I am currently open to work opportunities as a commercial producer, film director/producer/editor, video journalist/documentarian, and media educator.I specialize in creating content relating to social justice, human development, science, technology, athletics, and sustainable fashion, and have ample experience working in remote locations. Currently, I'm in post-production on a feature-length documentary in the SFFILM Makers program about food security and climate change on the front lines in Mali, West Africa, and traveled there twice to film. The project is a combination of arthouse cinema and science-based video journalism.Aided by my strong background in video production, photography, social sciences, human-centered design thinking, athletics, education, and world travel, I employ a methodical and meditative approach to my work that is both efficient and leaves room for serendipity and originality. I take the time to get a deeper understanding of the subject matter and the needs of clients and organizations that I work with to manifest a given project's vision.
