Bio

At this point in my career, I work as a producer and director at Flatlight, where our main focus is on commercial productions, though we also take on TV and film projects. Alongside this, I work as a freelance impact producer on a couple of documentary projects. My goal is to transition fully into impact producing as my main career. My background is in communications, which has provided me with a strong skill set for impact producing, from audience engagement to strategic messaging. I have studied cultural studies—focusing on media culture, audiovisual culture, and anthropology—as well as psychology. This academic foundation has shaped my societal perspective and ability to think systemically, both of which are essential in my work. Documentaries have always been my passion, and they are the main reason I chose to work in this field. I believe in their power to spark conversation, challenge perspectives, and drive real change. My approach is rooted in justice-centered storytelling, and I strive to ensure that the stories I help bring to life are thoughtful, ethical, and impactful. I am excited to continue learning, collaborating, and contributing to meaningful projects that push for positive change.
