Missions and Media: Capturing God's Work Through My Camera

Growing up as a missionary kid in Zambia, I witnessed firsthand the beautiful stories of God's work that often go untold. As a third-culture kid, I serve as a bridge between worlds, translating global ministry realities for the American church through visual storytelling.

My Mission

I document what missionaries are too busy living to capture themselves. By serving alongside them, I collect authentic moments that reveal both the need for God and His transformative work in the lives of those our missionaries serve.

I expose believers to the true nature of modern missions. In today's media landscape, misconceptions abound about what mission work actually involves. My media creates accurate windows into this world that resonate with both older generations and my fellow Gen Z peers.

I inspire the church by showcasing how their support impacts lives and inviting them into greater participation. I'm passionate about mobilizing the next generation of missionaries and senders through compelling visual storytelling.

Soul Care for Missionary Kids

My unique upbringing draws me especially to missionary kids. During my field visits, I intentionally counsel and encourage these children, ensuring they feel Christ's love in their unique cross-cultural experience.
