The Fight for Oak Flat is a documentary series about the proposed Resolution Copper Mine in Arizona and the people fighting to stop it from destroying Oak Flat, a unique natural area held sacred by indigenous peoples and used heavily by outdoor enthusiasts. Biologists install digital cameras and microphones around wild habitats to observe where endangered animals migrate. By mapping wildlife movements conservationists can advise governments how to build infrastructure that protects biodiversity. “Catalyst” finds engineers at Arizona State University who are working to build a better concrete. What does it mean for the environment? During a 10 day trip to Israel in 2017, I filmed a short documentary about the country's rapid population growth. The piece uses opposing voices to examines population growth in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict while also looking at groups on the fringes of society where population stress is the most apparent. The resulting short documentary was published by the Times of Israel. Explores the lives of foxes and other urban wildlife living just under our noses in Phoenix, Arizona. One of many segments I produced while working for Catalyst, a science TV show on Arizona PBS. Others include a full half hour episode about aging with autism and a segment about preserving migration corridors for animals in Sonora, Mexico and Arizona.
