I believe in having fun on set and collaborating with talented individuals. Most importantly, my approach is full-service. From managing post-production and licensing to hiring and producing shoots, I handle every aspect of the process.

On video sets, I thrive, seamlessly coordinating to capture the essence of every story. Working alongside talented teams, I bring my journalistic background and agency experience to every project.

I served as the Director of Still Photography, leading creative and marketing photography campaigns for Fortune 100 companies globally. My career spans across various newspapers and international wire services like The Washington Post, The New York Times, Getty, AFP, WSJ, USA Today, PBS, the Chicago Tribune, among others.

In Arizona, I proudly contributed to the Washington Post's 2022 Pulitzer Prize for Public Service, recognized for our coverage of the election recount. My journey has been about connecting and telling stories that resonate within our community.

Growing up under Arizona's sun, I honed my skills as a photojournalist, soaking up wisdom not just from acclaimed photographers nationwide, but from the people I had the privilege to photograph.
