I have spent ten fruitful years researching and developing documentaries for film and television. I have a deep passion for knowledge and am innately curious. I love the primordial stages of a project and helping it take shape. My specialties include historical research, finding characters and unknown stories, archival/visual research and story editing.

My work has been recognized with two Canadian Screen Award nominations for the Barbara Sears Award for Best Editorial Research.
