About
I've been shooting & producing documentary, network news (US and international) and corporate projects for 20 years, with assignments in China, India, Cuba, Brazil, Haiti, throughout Europe and above the Arctic Circle. Clients include CBS, ABC, Dan Rather Reports, PBS Newshour, Discovery, German and French national networks, Univision, ESPN, TBS Japan, IBM, JPMorgan Chase, Dow Jones, Canon, Macy's, Pepsico and Amnesty International. Former reporter/producer for NPR and student at Columbia Journalism School (as a Columbia undergrad), taught documentary and studio production at Global Village. Editor at ABC Network. Very well informed, well traveled, with decent Spanish. Based in Manhattan with 5 cameras and a van full of lighting and comfortable directing large crews, I also love working as a one man band while carrying all my gear in a backpack. Experienced with streaming and 360º production. Love good stories, interesting characters and the big issues of our time.
