I am a videographer, a photographer, and multimedia artist. My work is grounded in the oral history principles of reciprocity, narrators not subjects, and elevating lesser-heard voices. The intention of my work is to unsettle and expand social norms and to create vivid representations of peoples' lives, whether personal, social, project, or organizational.
I have previously worked in print and radio and I hold a graduate degree in Political Science from City University New York. In the spring of 2022, I completed the certificate program at the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University.
I live in Millerton, New York and my work regularly takes me throughout the Hudson Valley, NYC, Boston and areas in between and beyond.
I look forward to hearing from you.
