A huge thank you to everyone who has encouraged and supported me in my journey as a filmmaker and climate storyteller. I invite you to join me in one of the most unique and vulnerable places in the country to hear environmental stories, build community, and have some fun.

Trying something new! At the end of June, I had the incredible opportunity to attend the Hollywood Climate Summit. As both a filmmaker and educator, this event means so much to me as we work to combat the climate crisis through activism and storytelling.

I am thrilled to announce that my film, Blue Glacier Then & Now, has been officially selected for the digital/online segment of the 2024 Seattle Film Festival!

This is only my 2nd film festival selection ever and patience and persistence really pay off. I loved making this film and I learned so much along the way. This film would not have been possible without such an incredible collaborator as Chip Freund Photography. Climate change is here, it is real, and we need to share the story of the things we are losing as a result.

If you are able to tune in for the digital film festival starting on the 25th and running through June 12th, I would love to invite you.

Blue Glacier Then & Now | Documentary Trailer

The summer Chip Freund spent working alongside the Blue Glacier left an indelible mark on his heart, mind, and soul. He had longed to return to that special place before it is changed forever, and the fortieth anniversary of his time on the mountain provides the perfect opportunity.

Unfortunately, the topic of climate change has become highly politicized. It is his hope that by sharing his story and images he can open a discussion with those around him. Moving past lectures and rhetoric to meaningful dialog about our world and the effects we have upon it.
