About Me

 

“Stories have to be told or they die, and when they die, we can’t remember who we are or why we’re here.”
– Sue Monk Kidd, The Secret Life of Bees

 

When I was a little girl and someone first asked me what I wanted to be, my instinctive answer was “an artist“. It is the earliest memory I have of associating my essence and identity with a career, and perhaps even my greater role in society. As an adult, that reality has unfolded as a dynamic creative career and life working with a variety of media. There has always been an inner knowing that visual storytelling and multimedia were ways to the most effective and intimate ways to inform the mind and move the heart – but most importantly to create a common vision.

 

I am a commercial filmmaker/videographer that specializes in working with brands, organizations and professionals to create engaging video content. I specialize in (but not limited to): documentary-style brand stories, events, educational videos, social media marketing videos and marketing campaigns. In this medium I am equal parts cinematographer, editor, producer and director. Although I think from a high level about brand strategy and voice, am meticulous in scheduling and planning, and a stickler for making sure projects are on budget, I’ve been told that I can make people cry on camera like Oprah…so just sit in front of me for a minute and let me mic you up. 😉

 

Besides video, I’m also a passionate photographer specializing in capturing people, lifestyle and events! Check out my photo page for some examples.
