I'm an editor & filmmaker with a background in sustainability and documentary storytelling, I’m dedicated to catalyzing stories that reconnect people to nature and the sacredness of our collective human experience, while also bringing topics of food sovereignty and human rights to the forefront.

I co-directed my debut feature documentary, El peso de la manta alongside Otoxo Productions. The film follows the unionization of illegal immigrant street vendors in Barcelona, known as "manteros". And I directed, produced and edited short documentaries on the topics of sustainability and women (Sylvia Calvo, Linda) and on education (Kalleby).
Apart from dedicating time to my own projects, I work as a freelancer creating and editing beautifully crafted videos and docs and I've also worked in-house for production companies like Nanouk Films, and the international creative community, Domestika.
