Role: Producer
Next Gen Stunts
Role: Producer
A new generation of Hollywood stunt workers are changing the industry from the ground up.
Featuring the stunt team behind "Everything Everywhere All At Once," and hosted by Scripps News' pop culture correspondent Casey Mendoza, this documentary shows the behind-the-scenes reality for a new crop of stunt workers making Hollywood's biggest hits.
Hiv in the deep south
Role: Producer
2023 GLAAD Award Winning story for Outstanding TV Journalism Segment
The U.S. South is home to just over a third of the nation’s population — but more than half of new HIV cases each year.
Mississippi public health experts say one of the biggest hurdles to preventing and treating HIV in the region is the stigma surrounding the virus and people’s willingness to discuss it. That's especially true when it comes to reaching and treating the South's LGBTQ+ community, many of whom don't feel safe talking about their sexuality, even in a public health setting.
“In Real Life – HIV in the Deep South” shows how public health officials are reaching out to members of the LGBTQ+ community and beyond in the push for better and healthier lives.
dark Skies
Role: Producer
Scripps News’ Christian Bryant explores our relationship with light — from its impacts on wellness here on Earth to its shrouding of the stars above. We explore light pollution in major cities like Washington, DC, to International Dark Sky Communities like Crestone, Colorado.
Grandpa’s (TikTok) House
Role: Producer
Content creation houses aren't always about the flash, cash, and choreo. They can also be about family and authenticity.
For this piece, I worked as a field producer during shoots and collaborated with the correspondent from start to completion. I also helped tackle post-production through transcribing and assisting with scripting.
The God Thieves
Role: Producer
From Nepal, to the United Kingdom, to New York City, Scripps News and journalist Nelufar Hedayat show the human cost of the international market for looted and fake antiquities.
My role in the production of this story involved finding and working with a local producer in Nepal to coordinate that leg of the reporting trip, and serving as a field producer in New York and London.
Post-Roe limbo
Role: Producer
As clinics in states that now outlaw abortion pack up and move, clinics in "reproductive care deserts" find themselves overwhelmed with new patients, some coming from hundreds of miles to seek care.
#Savethebees
Role: Producer
Bees are a vital part of the Earth's ecosystem, but unfortunately, their populations are declining. Scripps News’ "#SaveTheBees" documentary details the efforts of the people trying to save them.
