Showcasing Research through Storytelling.
I wrote, edited, and produced this explainer video to better communicate some of HHI's research about the 2018-20 Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The script was reviewed by researchers working on the project to ensure accuracy. Because I did not have the means to travel to the DRC, the video is largely made using found footage sourced from various NGO media archives. The video is to be used on social media and at events to familiarize audiences with HHI's work. The video was also broken into sections and posted in a Twitter thread.
Including Global Perspectives in Humanitarian Training.

Building a Better Response seeks to provide foundational training in the international humanitarian coordination system for NGOs and others wishing to improve coordination in disaster response. Field Perspectives is meant to demonstrate the real world application of lessons taught in the online course, highlight the work of humanitarians around the world. I was responsible for writing, producing, and editing eight episodes of the Field Perspectives series.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, I rapidly produced a video explaining some of the implications for humanitarian practitioners around the world.
Driving Stakeholder Engagement Through Social-First Video
Videographer, Producer, Editor
Video is the most powerful tool to drive engagement through digital communications and social media. Focused, succinct, video that features compelling content improves uptake from influential individuals and strengthens relationships with partner organizations. This video was crafted in 24-hours as part of a social media campaign coordinated with Save The Children and World Vision. It received over 3,000 views on Twitter and was retweeted and liked by prominent journalists and researchers working in the space.
Highlighting Faculty Perspectives.

HHI Director Mike VanRooyen, MD, MPH, requested I make a video about humanitarian access and the role the United States plays in ensuring humanitarian workers can assist populations in crisis. I quickly produced and edited this video using existing footage of VanRooyen speaking about humanitarian access.
