Thank you for taking the time to learn about me. I've been on one side of the camera or the other for most of my career. I got into storytelling by accident when I went back to school for a second degree in the Journalism Department at the University of Nevada, Reno after appearing on local commercials. I though I just wanted to figure out how to get more air time, but I fell in love with every aspect of putting a story together - producing, writing, interviewing, editing and all the post production. There's always something new to learn about the profession and more importantly, what makes people who they are - their goals, desires and drive.

​

I think my main motivation has been my curiously and creative spirit. I also really value my easy connection to people who I meet through my work. I think everyone has something really interesting about them. I've been most humbled by the stories I've done on patients surviving life-threatening illnesses. So much love and hope. 

I began my storytelling career as a broadcast journalist for CBS. I gravitated towards the personal interest stories. And I covered just about every major murder trial in Reno for about six years. 

I continued with visual storytelling at the City of Reno where I was in charge of the government access channel. I told hundreds of stories involving elected officials, employees and residents.

​

In 2014, I became the first in-house video producer for Renown Health. I really loved being a brand storyteller for the major health system in Reno, Nevada. There I got to tell some amazing stories about patients and their families as they conquered life-threatening illnesses.

My awards include: Addy, Telly, PRSA Silver Spike, 3CMA Savvy, and Ragan Communications awards.
