A Way with Words and Pictures
I love a great story. I’m always in search of fascinating people and interesting places to profile in my work. For me, it’s about finding the extraordinary in the ordinary. I love interviewing people about who they are, what they do, and why they do it.
I have traveled the globe producing documentary films for a variety of broadcast clients. I supervise productions and teams from development through post, and weave narrative threads with truly compelling characters. I was head of production for a boutique production company in Santa Barbara, running projects from development through delivery for broadcast outlets.
Whether I’m ghostwriting for the C-Suite, writing a script for a television documentary, or pitching an article for publication, I’m driven by a passion for telling stories.
Here are some examples of my work.
