Available to hire
I’ve also built a career in television hosting and sustainability storytelling. I’ve hosted and produced episodes for Travel Channel across 29 countries, and my LA portfolio show was Emmy-nominated for Best Television Documentary. My work with Saatchi & Saatchi-S included sustainability curricula and campaigns for major brands, alongside traveling and speaking engagements. When I’m not on assignment, I enjoy leading multi-week adventures that combine photography, culture, and responsible travel.
