Academically, I enjoy exploring the ways in which mass media power structures impact society and communication. As a professor, challenging and encouraging my students to become active, ethical consumers and producers of media content takes center stage in my classroom.
Creatively, film is my chosen medium, as I find the moving image to be a powerful and fulfilling storytelling tool. I believe that a fusion of critical theory and hands-on practice are foundational to the learning process, both inside and out of a formalized pedagogical spaces.
