DOCUMENTARY FILM

EDITOR

ABOUT

I’m an editor of feature and short documentaries. I began in the advocacy world, creating short videos covering refugee crises in the Middle East, the independence of South Sudan, earthquake recovery efforts in Nepal, and innovation in Uganda. My work on The Messy Truth original web series with CNN’s Van Jones was the winner of a 2017 Webby Award, and my short documentary Makapads was a semi-finalist in GE's Focus Forward Filmmaker Competition in 2012.

When not in the edit room, I’ve worked as a mentor and technical advisor in youth media and teacher training classes in New York City and Washington, DC. I spend most of my free time chasing around my toddler and dog, or training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I have a master’s in Media Studies from The New School in New York City.
