As a director, I love creating the space for authenticity, intimacy and humor to emerge in the field.
I enjoy both meticulous planning as well as the surrender that comes with vérité filmmaking. I cherish the collaborative process and enjoy working closely with others to enhance the vision. As a lifelong musician, I prioritize music and sound design throughout every stage of the process.
I’m most often drawn to stories about the natural world and our relationship to it. I’m fascinated by the grey areas in psychology, humanity and life itself. I love exploring deeper, darker human emotions, but always come back to hope, resilience and optimism.
