Professional Experience

I am an award-winning photographer shooting interiors, portraits, travel, lifestyle and food for editorial and commercial clients. I bring a strong visual sense and design awareness with a creative background that includes filmmaking, as well as writing and editing. As a writer/editor, I have experience in the financial and pharmaceutical industries, delivering a wide range of client-facing materials, from user documentation to internal corporate communications. My skills are very well-rounded in all the aspects that are essential to storytelling across various mediums.
