About Me

I am a Navajo American filmmaker and storyteller.  As a teen, two of my short narrative films aired on HBO Family Channel, officially launching my film career.  I graduated with a B.A. in the Moving Image Arts at College of Santa Fe in 2007.  

My past production work, a mix of both television and film, includes: Renovation Nation, Yohan: The Child Wanderer, 53rd & 54th Annual Grammy Awards, BET Hip Hop Awards, Primetime Emmy Awards, 39th People’s Choice Awards, Queen Anne’s Lace, with post-production in reality television’s  Jersey Shore and Co-Editor of Queen Anne’s Lace, Hike the Divide (Documentary), Chemawa Indian School’s A Home Away From Home (Documentary) and Fundación BAI A.C’s Virtual Mérida Showcase of Homes (Documentary). 

I have a passion for sharing my filmmaking experience and knowledge with young people, especially Indigenous and Native American youth.  I was a mentor for Native American youth in The Superfly Filmmaking Experience in Seattle, WA (2013-2014, featured in Seattle International Film Festival). I was also a mentor for Paper Rocket Productions’ filmmaking workshop at the Navajo Reservation in Shiprock, NM (2015). I then led a narrative and documentary filmmaking afterschool program to Native American teens at Chemawa Indian School in Salem, OR (2016-2018).  

I own Goodluck Productions and Designs, specializing in narrative and documentary filmmaking, promotional video, and portrait and event photography. I also co-own Native Nomads Vlog, a Youtube Channel and Blog focused on travel through Mexico and indigenous culture with my husband. We are currently in the development phase as directors of Faces Of The Modern Maya, a feature length documentary set in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico.
