Hello! I am an independent producer, editor, and video journalist living in Berlin, Germany, originally from the US. My work ranges from music videos to corporate documentaries to short fiction films, although I've always had a passion for free-form documentary film that seeks to raise social awareness. My film credits include post-production editing and office work on the Oscar-nominated film Trouble the Water, Michael Moore's most recent film Capitalism: A Love Story, and the upcoming Morgan Spurlock-produced documentary, Dancing in Jaffa. I have always devoted a significant amount of time to the discoveries of travel, various cultures, and the human spirit, and hope to convey this understanding and emotions in my film work and everyday life. I graduated from Wesleyan with a BA in film in 2010 and now reside in Berlin, Germany, continuing to make creative and fun work.

I've worked as a freelancer for the french-german TV channel ARTE, CBS and the BBC. Recently I've completed my first independent documentary. POWER is a short doc on violence against women in India, it has won awards at international film festivals. Before working as a freelancer I trained at City University for broadcast journalism. I've published stories in FocusOnline, Naked Punch Magazine, Deutsche Welle and I was an online editor for the Magazine Digital-Life-Design. Most of all I love working independently, being on a shoot and producing stories. Having worked in India and Pakistan several times between 2010 and 2014, I'm aware of what it takes to research and produce stories in adverse places. My love for traveling brought me to journalism and I still see it as part of the attraction. It allows me to understand the world by experiencing it and making complex stories accessible to a wider audience. I'm also program coordinator at the Dart Centre for Journalism and Trauma.
