About

I am a creative video editor and story producer with 20+ years of experience across documentary, branded content, and reality television. I excel at shaping narratives, delivering visually engaging content under tight deadlines, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to produce high-impact work. I was Emmy-nominated for CNN’s High Profits and have a proven track record managing post-production teams, directing shoots, and guiding projects from concept to delivery.

I’ve built a diverse portfolio for clients including Austin-based brands and major networks, routinely turning complex stories into clear, compelling visuals. I’m known for my friendly, results-oriented approach and my ability to stay adaptable in fast-paced production environments.
