I am an award-winning journalist and documentary filmmaker based in Brooklyn, NY.

Most recently, I was producing news documentaries for Vice News, where I reported across the the U.S. and from Latin America, Europe, and North Africa. Some of the many stories I’ve covered include international money laundering schemes financing the global fentanyl trade, the sexual abuse of confidential informants by police officers, and the separation of thousands of children from their parents at the U.S.–Mexico border. My work has been recognized with five News and Documentary Emmys, a Polk award, and a Murrow award, among other honors.
