ABOUT
Working primarily as a director and cinematographer, I make intimate and deeply researched documentaries and branded projects. I make podcasts and music, too.
In 2024, I co-founded the storytelling studio Strange Luck with Jess Dipierro Obert and Jen Ng.
I studied journalism at UNC-Chapel Hill and earned a Master of Science at Harvard Medical School. I speak English and Spanish – and enough Haitian Creole and French to get into (and out of) trouble.
I live in Mexico City with my two rescue cats.
