I produced this video for the Flagler College Athletic Department. The purpose was to thank sponsors and supporters of Flagler College athletes and explore ways in which the athletes contribute to the community in St. Augustine, Florida. For this story, I interviewed the owner of a horse carriage company, a veterinarian and a city official in Savannah, Georgia, after the city took measures to protect horses that work in the summer heat. The Weather Channel URL is no longer active, so I use a YouTube link. For this story, I interviewed residents of St. George, Georgia. Authorities had ordered residents to evacuate as a wildfire continued to spread in the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge near the Florida-Georgia border. Many townspeople refused to leave, saying they wanted to stay behind to try to save homes and businesses. The Weather Channel URL is no longer active, so I use a YouTube link.

About Tracey
I am an award-winning multimedia journalist and producer. I have worked throughout Latin America, speak fluent Spanish and am a former Fulbright scholar in Ecuador. I love telling stories whether it's with words, pictures or video. I am available to shoot anything from news assignments and profiles to features and short documentaries. I am a problem solver and work well with people. My storytelling tools include a Panasonic G9 4k video camera, a DJI Osmo, a DJI Mavic drone, a Canon HF G50 and a Hero7 Go Pro; Sennheiser wireless mics, a Deity shotgun mic, Fotodiox lights and other gear. I have a strong journalism background. I headed Dallas Morning News bureaus in Mexico and Cuba from 1994 to 2005. I investigated corruption and organized crime in Mexico and along the U.S.-Mexico border, and covered the fighting in Afghanistan after the Sept. 11 attacks. I've been awarded four Pulitzer Center travel grants - three for work in Cuba, one for a project in Bolivia. I travel to Cuba regularly. In 2015 and 2016, I assisted NBC’s Nightly News, led by Lester Holt, with its coverage in Cuba. I also produce videos for businesses and non-profit organizations, including Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida.
