Get To Know Me

I’m a journalist, writer, and filmmaker exploring how the natural world shapes our cultures, societies, and political structures. From coastal fishing villages in Sinaloa to remote wildernesses in the American West, my work is dedicated to exploring how our lives, society, and world are tied to the natural world.

Through this work, I’m fighting to spark curiosity, deepen connection, and inspire action to protect and understand our beautiful planet.
