I'm a Showrunner, Director, and Journalist based in Los Angeles, CA, with over 20 years of experience in the industry, leading a wide variety of formats (documentary, unscripted, branded, podcast) and genres (travel, food, arts & culture, social impact). My track record of unearthing compelling stories, developing creative approaches, and connecting deeply with a multitude of talent, backgrounds, and personalities has earned me notable credits and recognition.

In 2023, I won an Emmy for Best Human Interest for the documentary The Movement to Save New York's Chinatown as well as gold recognitions at 2024's Anthem Awards and Shorty Impact Awards for the doc series Food Heroes. Both series for First We Feast on YouTube featured unsung heroes in marginalized communities as well as grassroots organizations like Inclusive Action for the City, Crop Swap LA, and No Us Without You, pushing for positive social change through food and community action.

Recent credits also include a home makeover series hosted by Cam’ron for Paramount+ and MTV, an on-platform travel series for Spotify, a social first docufollow series for Complex Networks on Facebook, and a companion podcast for a CW/Netflix series as well as branded and marketing campaigns/videos for Netflix, Urban Decay, and TED.

Earlier in my career, I had the special opportunity of being a part of a small team that launched the MTV network in Canada where I led the development and production of MTV News by introducing the brand as a regular segment in interstitials and online, as its first Reporter and Producer, before adapting MTV News into a daily half-hour magazine-style show with candid and in-depth interviews, behind-the-scenes, and original segments with hundreds of music, film, TV, and pop culture talent. After winning a Travel Journalism Award for Best in Broadcast for the special MTV News Pounds Britain, I also created and produced a primetime travel series on MTV that featured musicians, filmmakers, and artists of all kinds experiencing their favorite local spots around the world that had made great impact on their lives.

The beating heart throughout any project I lead is to give diverse stories, perspectives, and voices a place to be seen and heard, and where human connection, discovery, and joy can be shared. If you have a story you’d like to tell or would like to collaborate, let’s chat!
