I’m a filmmaker, photographer, and communicator based in Bend, Oregon. My path has always been rooted in a love for the environment and a belief in the power of story. I’ve long been drawn to communication, first through writing, and now through filmmaking.

My academic and professional experiences have shaped my ability to translate complex environmental topics into compelling visual narratives that connect people to place and elevate voices too often overlooked. I believe storytelling can shift perspectives, spark empathy, and move people to care and act.

My work has taken me into outdoor environments around the world, exploring the intersection of sustainability, culture, and adventure through documentary. I bring a strong understanding of both production and post-production, with experience across camera operation, directing, and editing. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll likely find me climbing, skiing, mountain biking, or chasing the next outdoor adventure!
