bio

I firmly believe that words influence thought, and thought influences action. As a writer and producer, I am deeply committed to making a positive contribution to both my local and global community through heartfelt storytelling and collaborative production. I also understand that in any industry, reputation is everything. Therefore I strive to produce innovative, high quality work, and challenge myself to improve with every new assignment.
