Service Through Story | Producer | Writer | Amateur Photographer  Collaborating with teams of creators, artists and journalists to tell stories through images and words is the channel through which I’ve expressed myself through my career. I’ve been honored to feature people from all over the world including Olympians and inventors of life-changing innovations, among others, for broadcast television, streaming and on my podcast and blog. Shining a light on the lives of others, the work it takes to reach for greatness and the willingness to win or lose….who isn’t inspired by that? My mission through story is to build connections and bridges — to open hearts and minds. Arts  Martial arts, writing and amateur photography have been part of my life for years guiding my decisions and taking me places I never imagined.  Wellness   I’m finding my way to improved well-being and healthy aging, and in the process I earned my Wellness Coaching Certification through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM). Volunteering  The Rotary motto is Service Above Self, and I’m a proud member of Rotary. I’m especially motivated to give back to this organization after receiving a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholarship years ago.  Awards I’ve earned six national Emmy Awards from The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS) for writing and producing in three separate Emmy communities.
