I’m a Media Specialist and digital storyteller with 10+ years of experience supporting broadcast, nonprofit, political, and arts organizations through high-quality video, photography, and content production. My background spans video editing, creative graphics, teleprompter operations, captioning, and on-set production support for both live and recorded projects.
I’ve worked with organizations including BRIC, NPower, Mass Appeal, the New York State Assembly, and the Reel Sisters of the Diaspora Film Festival, where I’ve contributed to everything from daily studio productions and public service announcements to documentaries, podcasts, and live events. I’m especially experienced in post-production workflows, digital storytelling, and collaborating with producers and creative teams to bring clear, compelling narratives to life.
What sets me apart is my versatility and reliability — I’m equally comfortable behind the scenes managing technical details as I am contributing creatively. I bring a calm, solutions-oriented approach to fast-paced environments, a strong eye for detail, and a deep commitment to delivering work that reflects each client’s voice and goals.
I wanted to be the first to make a music video and homage to Solange’s “Don’t Touch My Hair.” This song really meant something to me and my friends and I wanted to make a video to express that. I hope you enjoy the video. I had so much fun shooting it!

Exploring the Frame: Storytelling in Stills [Course Assignment]
Through this assignment, I reviewed the iconic works of Gordon Parks and Stanley Kubrick with a focus on composition. I made note of the different composition techniques that both of these photojournalists have used in their work. I learned about how the concept of composition derived hundreds of years ago from paintings and how filmmakers and photographers have since borrowed techniques from it. I love the concept of composition and how it helps create a scene, its environment and the emotional state of said environment. For this project, I revisited some of my own original photographs from a photo essay I did in 2015 called “A Love Story.” It was an amazing trip down memory lane.
