'Every Rock Has A Story'

For this episode of 'Every Rock Has A Story', we take you to Sweden to explore the search for lithium, a critical mineral used in modern batteries. Working with geologist Kathryn Goodenough, the episode takes viewers into the field to uncover how geologists identify and evaluate potential lithium deposits.

I produced, filmed, and edited the episode, shaping field footage, interviews, and scientific concepts into an accessible, visually-driven story that brings complex geology to life.

For my work on this episode, I earned a

New England Emmy nomination for Editing and Videography.

'Every Rock Has A Story'

In Episode #74 of Every Rock Has A Story, we travel to the Jurassic Coast to explore the stories and achievements of pioneering women in science whose discoveries and contributions helped shape our understanding of the world.

I produced, filmed, and edited the episode, combining interviews, field footage, archival material, and visual storytelling to bring these scientific stories to life.

In Episode #75 of Every Rock Has A Story, we explored the world of fossil collecting with paleontologist Cameron Muskelly, highlighting how fossil hunting can be an engaging way for families and young people to connect with science and the natural world.

I produced, filmed, and edited the episode, capturing the hands-on experience of fossil collecting and shaping the field footage, interviews, and educational content into an accessible, family-friendly story. 

For my work on these two episodes, I earned a

New England Emmy nomination for Editing and Videography.

'Every Rock Has A Story'

In Episode #73 of Every Rock Has A Story, we explored one of the biggest questions in planetary science: could Mars have once supported life? Working with planetary scientist Dr. Tanja Bosak, the episode examines the geological evidence that could help scientists understand Mars’ ancient environment and its potential to preserve signs of past life.

I produced, filmed, and edited the episode, combining interviews, scientific imagery, NASA footage, and visual storytelling to make complex planetary science accessible and engaging for a broad audience.

In Episode #66 of Every Rock Has A Story, we joined geologist Maureen Long on a “Continent Quest” to explore the geological boundary of North America and uncover how scientists determine where a continent truly begins and ends.

From production in the field through the final edit, I managed the project from concept to completion.

For my work on these two episodes, I earned a

New England Emmy nomination for Editing and Videography.
