I am not only a specialist in creating visual media, I also have a special interest in how people relate to the world around them. This natural capacity led me to earning my Bachelor of Science degree in Human Ecology at The Ohio State University. I then synthesized my interests with career by working with the American Red Cross from 2006 to 2008 as the Celebrity and Entertainment Outreach Coordinator. In that role, I coordinated with the entertainment industry to support humanitarian efforts through producing specialty media projects.
I joined the National Park Service in 2009, leading video projects from inception to release, and launching many successful video series. I am currently a Creative Director, where I lead the effort to conceptualize and produce educational, inspiring, and engaging videos to showcase the nation’s public parks.
