Me with Emmy.jpg

BIO

I’m an Emmy Award winning filmmaker who has worked across platforms from film to television to online content. My work has spanned the globe as a producer/director, filming in some of the harshest and most remote areas on our planet. My credits include The Amazing Race, Whale Wars, and Living Undocumented.

I’m also an award winning narrative filmmaker, and my projects have screened in various film festivals including the Cannes Film Festival, Oaxaca Film Festival, and Hamilton Film Festival to name a few.

My feature film script Alone Girl was a semi-finalist in three categories of the Austin Film Festival Screenplay Competition 2019 as well as earning a spot on The Bitch List 2020. Most recently, I’ve been been chosen as one of 25 screenwriters to watch by the Austin Film Festival.
