In 2016, I collaborated with filmmaker Brady Holden to produce a video that would tell the story of Columbia Land Trust’s largest conservation success to date. As She Grows is a short film that illustrates the art of land conservation, the science behind forest restoration, and the value of preserving nature’s wonders for the generations to come.

I wrote, storyboarded, and produced the video, which premiered at Columbia Land Trust’s annual gala, Wild Splendor. By providing a compelling visual story, we helped inspire generosity in our audience and set a fundraising record for the event.
