Editor| Documentary Filmmaker

Originally from Dearborn, MI, she moved to Seattle in for the city, ocean and woods. Her passion for videos, films and photography began with her dad, who always had a camera in hand and an often-reluctant teenage daughter as his subject.

 

Her career journey reflects a commitment to public health, sex and gender-based violence education and advocacy, program management, and documentary film production. These experiences have equipped her with a unique skill set tailored to advancing social change.

 

She is particularly passionate about documentary film editing and creative collaboration.  She believes in the transformative power of real-life storytelling to foster empathy, inspire and create meaningful connections with oneself and others.
