Hope For The Holidays

Documentary Feature 1:34

Synopsis:

After spending years volunteering with homeless shelters, animal rescues, and community outreaches; I decided to merge my growing experience of professional video production with my passion for humanitarian work. Every time I hit record, ask a question, or hit render my goal is the same: to give the viewer access to a side of the world they haven't seen, and to elevate the voices of those unheard. For every moment shared of a stranger in need, there's a context of curiosity and a respect for their honesty as I ask people to allow me to step into their world for a day.

Director Statement
