I've found a passion for documentary film and am still exercising my skills in shooting, storytelling, and editing to bring people and their stories to life. I hope to produce films that reveal the beauty of the world around us and the people who live in it.
Pura Vida, Pura Tierra
Winner of a Diva Video-Slam contest and second-place winner of the Samara Film Festival, this 9-minute documentary film explores local conservation efforts in Samara, Costa Rica; a town struggling to cope with a surge of foreign investors and tourists. Behind the clean beaches and pristine waters is a small army of environmentalists fighting to keep the beauty of Costa Rica alive.

Wanderlust
A mock pilot episode for a fictional new Discovery Channel show where each week the show's host travels the world searching for the world's most dangerous animals. A little goofy, and not altogether serious. Click below for the video: [04:06]

Vanport:Oregon's Lost City
Vanport City was born out of WWII as the Oregon Shipbuilding Company rushed to provide housing for the influx of workers in the shipyards. By 1943 it was the second-larget city in Oregon and remains the largest government housing project in U.S. History. In 1948 the Columbia River Dike broke and wiped out the entire city in a massive flood. This film explores the flood and Vanport City and its impact on the city of Portland. Full video coming soon.
