I’m incredibly honored to be featured in Better Magazine’s “2026 Eco Warriors,” recognizing individuals using storytelling, advocacy, science, and creativity to help protect our planet.

This recognition is especially meaningful because it’s shared alongside so many inspiring conservationists, photographers, educators, and environmental leaders whose work I deeply admire.

I’ve always believed storytelling has the power to build empathy, create connection, and inspire action. I’m grateful to continue using film and photography to share stories about conservation, community, and our relationship with the natural world.

Thank you to Better Magazine and to everyone who continues to support environmental storytelling and creative work rooted in hope and impact.
