I worked in North Texas newspapers for two decades, covering local and international news. Journalism taught me to be prepared to hit the ground running no matter what the assignment. I'm based in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and I still have a passion for documentary-style work because it captures moments that tell a story. From 2017 through 2024, I worked as a visual storyteller for FirstNet, Built with AT&T, America’s public safety network, doing video pre-production, directing and interviewing on location, and scripting stories from transcripts. Whether in photography or video, my passion remains storytelling. Storytelling can inform, persuade, change, and save lives.
