About
Documentary filmmaker, field producer, and certified drone pilot with a foundation in high-end outdoor media and content creation. I have built a career capturing narratives in demanding natural environments and I am now pivoting my expertise toward documentary storytelling focused on global impact, social equity, and sustainability.
My experience navigating relationships between government ministries, international stakeholders, and local communities allows me to translate complex institutional goals into honest visual narratives. Whether operating in the high mountains or remote field sites, I combine technical cinematography with the logistical grit required to document empowerment and sustainable impact on a global scale.
