I am a visual journalist and social scientist based in the Bay Area. Through photography, film, and ethnography, I examine the nuances of human nature and sociopolitical issues.

I studied filmmaking and theatre, and minored in photography and sociology at Chapman University. I have also earned an additional bachelor’s degree in criminal justice studies and in the process of obtaining graduate degrees in the social sciences (anthropology, political science, and ethnic studies) and restorative practices.

I was lucky to intern for IM Global at the Cannes Film Festival and be hired to be an executive assistant at their London office during my junior year. I have held a variety of roles in film and photography ever since, from working as a production assistant on multi-million dollar features, commercials, and editorials to casting and location scouting for ultra low-budget passion projects in California and New York.

In most recent years, I have produced work for Daily Kos, KRCB, PBS, Independent Television Service, and the National Endowment for the Arts. I explore many themes that include culture, politics, race, class, sexuality, and gender. I am especially passionate about social justice and seek to create art that challenges inequities in our world.
