I'm a multimedia journalist based in Brooklyn, New York. I source, write and shoot stories to be shared for news, documentaries and social channels. I specialize in exploring the things that people from all walks of life form communities around ─ like graffiti artists in Dakar, Santeros in Cuba, Vintage Ralph Lauren collectors in Brooklyn, and motocross racers in Jamaica. My goal is to explore culture that binds people together.

Lena was so amazing to work with! She saved us last minute when our plans A and B fell through. She comes highly recommended and is great on-camera, very warm and easy to relate too also very easy to work with. We look forward to having her on board our future projects in NY.

Lena pitched a great story that was a perfect sit for one of our series. She was super organized and delivered all the elements we had discussed - looking forward to working together again in the future!
