Documentaries & Talks
Over the years, I’ve developed a strong passion for documentary filmmaking, beginning with stories rooted in my hometown and expanding into collaborative projects that help others share their own meaningful experiences. On this page I've consolidated some stills from recent projects that reflect these interests. These images represent both collaborative productions and personal work.
I also provide professional recordings of talks, lectures, speeches, and community events, helping preserve and share important conversations and moments.

Chester, NY: ICE Facility
Recently in my hometown of Chester, NY, there have been protests regarding the proposal from the Department of Homeland Security to "purchase, occupy, and rehabilitate" a warehouse for ICE operations.
As an advocate against these detention centers and their documented human rights abuses, I have been following the story as more information is made available, and plan on continuing to document this story.
This video was created soon after the first protests following the propositions reveal to the public, and largely contextualizes the proposal.
