A digital storyteller ready for assignments anywhere in the world, I have experience in many forms of media—video, photo, audio and print. My background is in magazine and book design, so I appreciate color, type and packaging of content. My new training has me thinking in multimedia. I love the entire process of videomaking—conceiving ideas, locating people to interview, developing rapport to help create a compelling narrative, and of course shooting and editing. In fact I have put more than 100 interviews to video in the last three years. From remote island lifestyles to arcane musical practices, stories of suffering and stories of joy, I seek to reveal the unexpected in my reporting. As a result of teaching audio and video for the web at UNC-Chapel Hill while completing my master’s degree, I discovered my love for sharing the craft with others. I am seeking opportunities to continue teaching through video storytelling workshops and welcome requests. In fall 2010 I joined the faculty of the School of Communications at Elon University, teaching writing and multimedia journalism.

I live in Durham, North Carolina, USA, just 12 miles from RDU International Airport. Give me a reason to catch a plane and shoot some video.
