I’m a journalist and media producer who likes to dig into stories that matter. I’ve spent the last decade filming, editing, and producing content for outlets like the BBC, PBS, the UN, NYT, and the ICRC — everything from podcasts to documentaries to news features. I tell stories visually and in audio, and I love projects that let me combine research, narrative, and hands-on production. I’m comfortable running full productions solo or working with teams, and I’ve got a knack for turning complex stories into something people want to watch, listen to, and share.
