In 2019, as President Donald Trump issued policies that targeted asylum seekers at the United States-Mexico border, I was deployed multiple times to produce, shoot, and edit videos and photography focused on the International Rescue Committee’s programs serving this population. Several of these projects involved working closely with public figures, including Mandy Patinkin, Cindy McCain, and Piper Perabo. I also played a critical role in strategizing distribution of this content for fundraising and advocacy.
