I’ve spent most of my career creating documentary feature films, docuseries, TV and branded content working with Netflix, CBS, ABC, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, History, CNN, USA, Travel Channel and brands such as Redbull, Amazon, Toyota, Genesis, Reef, Roxy, Seatrees, Airbnb, Headspace and Tesla.

I started my career while I was a junior at UC Berkeley shooting the series Survivor over my summer breaks. I went onto produce the series, working on seasons 5-12. Since then I moved onto direct and EP a number of adventure series for National Geographic, Discovery and others. I’ve traveled to over 85 countries and to some of the most remote corners of the globe. I speak Spanish and Portuguese and I love to lean on my language skills to connect with subjects from different countries. I’m passionate about exploring different subcultures, developing and producing compelling content with purpose.

Last year I produced two films in the immigration space, a feature film called Blood on the Wall for Nat Geo and Torn Apart for HBO. I also directed a 6-part series for the Biden campaign humanizing different kinds of American climate stories.

Storytellers have a distinct responsibility to craft entertaining stories that challenge the media landscape, break boundaries, humanize truth, protect the environment and inspire empathy.
