Industry Experience

Media & Entertainment
    paper Day-in-the-Life Documentary | Real-Time Field Storytelling

    Documentary-style video following Michigan Humane Field Services during a real call involving an animal in need. I edited existing rescue and interview footage into a cohesive narrative that captures an authentic, real-time perspective while highlighting the team’s compassionate impact on animal welfare. The focus was on preserving honesty, pacing, and emotional clarity rather than staged or promotional framing.

    paper Client Testimonial Film | Authentic, Story-Led Interview Narrative

    Interview-led client testimonial film focused on authentic, story-driven narrative rather than promotional messaging. I handled full-cycle production from planning and filming through final edit, shaping the story to preserve emotional truth, clarity, and trust.

    paper Interview-Driven Documentary | Michigan Humane Field Services

    Created to share the voices of the Michigan Humane Field Services team and their real-world impact on animal welfare. I filmed interviews, shaped multiple firsthand stories into a cohesive narrative, and edited the final piece using rescue footage to reinforce authenticity. I also designed motion graphics for the opener and story transitions to elevate pacing and visual cohesion. The video was produced for a donor event to communicate impact through lived experience rather than promotion.

    paper "Still I Rise" | Long-Form Narrative | Editorial Storytelling & Cultural Context

    Long-form narrative video created to explore the significance of Black History Month within the organization through thoughtful storytelling rather than announcement. I took an initial concept and shaped it into a cohesive editorial narrative, overseeing script development, interview selection, and visual direction. I selected team members and leaders to interview, directed talent and crew on set, designed lighting and production setup, oversaw motion graphics, and edited the final piece.

    paper Demo Reel | Authentic Narrative Storytelling in Corporate Culture

    Curated demo reel showcasing narrative-driven video projects created within a corporate culture context at Rocket Mortgage. The work reflects a deliberate shift away from traditional, formulaic corporate content toward authentic, story-led storytelling. Across these projects, I focused on concept development, visual narrative, directing talent, and post-production decisions that prioritize honesty, clarity, and emotional resonance over polish for polish’s sake.

    paper Brand Story Film | Narrative & Editorial Direction | "I Am Paddock"

    Concept-led brand story film developed to articulate identity, values, and voice through narrative rather than promotion. I originated the concept and narrative strategy, presented the creative and production plan to stakeholders, and led execution end to end. My role included talent selection and direction, writing and directing the voiceover script, filming, and editing the final piece with a focus on pacing, emotional clarity, and editorial integrity.
