about the artist

I seek to tell stories of transformation.  

​

I have traveled extensively chasing different stories around the world. Creating my first feature documentary film, One Step Beyond, has taken me to East Africa many times as I followed the story of Tanzanian youth leaders. I have worked on some really inspiring projects in South Africa, Thailand, Guatemala, and I look forward to new stories I encounter in my travels. I often use my skills to tell stories of non-profit organizations and socially responsible businesses I encounter along the way. 

​

As a storyteller, my favorite mediums are still images and moving pictures, however, I also write and play music. Growing up in the coastal area of North Carolina, I have always been fascinated by water in all its forms, and thus, you will notice this theme in much of my work. I spent many years in Colorado teaching, exploring, fly fishing, and studying nature through my art. Most recently I have returned to Zanzibar Island, Tanzania, which is a place full of mysteries, culture and natural wonders.
