I am an award-winning visual journalist, video and multimedia producer, and editor based in New York City. My work is driven by a commitment to innovation in storytelling and to supporting organizations that create positive impact.
I've reported and produced photo, video, and audio stories internationally, working independently and in uncertain environments where you have to figure things out as you go. I've been the producer, the editor, the shooter, and whatever the story needed. That experience shaped how I work: comfortable with ambiguity, focused on excellence, and energized by collaboration. I love experimenting with new tools and formats when they serve the story, always aiming to deliver work that's both technically sharp and deeply engaging.
