How you share information, tell a joke or weave a story matters a lot to your audience. It’s a skill. My skill is storytelling through images – photo and video. I love getting immersed in the amazing work of my clients, translating their messages into images that turn heads, capture hearts or tickle the funnies. I’ve spent the past 25 years using my creative, strategic and technical talents to bring brand stories alive through videography, editing and animation. I’m a creative producer/director/writer/editor with strong background in marketing and promotion. I’m experienced in storytelling from 30-seconds to 60-minutes, with crossover skills in filmmaking, programming and digital media. I've been crafting visual stories for a variety of industries and applications, winning more than 30 industry awards, including an Emmy. My career started in broadcast, writing and producing for networks like Discovery Channel, truTV, National Geographic, Animal Planet and TLC. With the credentials and experience of working for television, I put those skills to use in other arenas as I expanded my client roster. Taking both a creative and strategic approach, I've led initiatives on diverse projects, including fundraising videos for the National Park Foundation and Children’s National Hospital, social media campaigns for Marriott International and Future Farmers of America, as well as complex photography shoots for Procter & Gamble and the National Education Association. Today, I bring these unique experiences and professional aesthetics to clients of all sizes, working with small businesses, national associations and global corporations. The size of the client doesn't matter. It’s about magnifying the size of their story as large as possible.
