MY STORY
Going Home Pictures was founded in 2003 with the intention of bringing social issues to light and producing meaningful and engaging content through the power and intimacy of documentary filmmaking and photography. I set out to produce media content geared toward making a positive change or contribution to society rather than solely entertaining it. With my creative roots grounded in NYC and over a decade of production work in Los Angeles, I returned back home to Texas in 2016 in search of that so evasive work-life balance. Work takes me all over the country (and then some), but I'm based in Fort Worth. I was the head of digital media for the disaster response organization Team Rubicon from 2010-2017 and am presently at the helm of digital and creative for Team Rubicon Global.
Simply put, I’m a storyteller. I take time to know a client, their challenges, wishes, concerns, victories & failures, and whatever else helps weave the threads of a story. I look at the project from many angles before diving in and, if necessary, start from scratch until it’s exactly what is needed. Whether the client is a well-established nonprofit or a startup company, there is still a story to tell and an authentic way to tell it. Maybe that’s through 360 VR video, or maybe it’s a web series for social media.
