About

I’m a content creator and strategist with a background in photojournalism and filmmaking and a deep love for storytelling that connects. I’ve helped brands grow through social-first content, video marketing, and creative campaigns that feel human and hit home. Whether I’m behind a camera or mapping out a digital strategy, I bring curiosity, clarity, and a whole lot of heart. Outside of work, I’m usually on a mountain trail with my pup or chasing golden hour with a camera in hand.
