WRITING
Before film or photography, my most eloquent medium for communication was writing. I have a strong background in upper division academic research and composition for the sciences and liberal arts. As a journalist I’ve published news features and human interest stories for a variety of audiences. As a scholar I am well versed in film theory, history, politics and cultural anthropology.
