About


Hey there! I’m a documentary filmmaker and photographer based in the PNW drawn to stories about authentic people, rad outdoor adventures, meaningful sustainability, and inspiring wildlife. My work has taken me around the world exploring the intersection of these passions, creating thoughtful stories for clients like PBS, American Rivers and Access Fund.

My experience spans both production and post production, ranging from camera operation, field sound, DIT, and assistant editing. If i’m not diving into a creative project I’m most likely mountain biking, climbing, or finding fun creatures in tide pools.

If you have any questions, want to chat about a project, or just say hey, please email me at
