"baby hers"

For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved animals and wanted to help them.

I wrote, directed and produced "Baby Hers" in an attempt to create awareness about one of the best kept secrets of factory farming and the dairy industry, and to help billions of mothers and babies who are suffering daily but have no voice of their own.

Watch the trailer here.

The film won several high-profile awards at international film festivals including:

Best Documentary at the Big Apple Film Festival
American Documentary and Animation Film Festival
Gold Remi at the WorldFest-Houston International Film & Video Festival
USA Film Festival
International Vegan Film Festival

rancher advocacy program (RAP)

How can farmers thrive on their land WITHOUT using animals? Most farmers and ranchers love their animals, and often experience emotional conflict regarding the animals they are raising for slaughter. But many feel they have no way out.

Renee King-Sonnen, founder of Rowdy Girl Sanctuary, created the world’s first successful cattle ranch transition to a non-profit sanctuary model. She and her former cattle rancher/co-founder husband, Tommy Sonnen, launched the Rancher Advocacy Program (RAP) - a program that inspires farmers and ranchers to consider alternatives to animal agriculture.

To help them get the word out, I wrote, directed and produced two PSAs: one targeting farmers wanting to make a change, and one targeting companies needing suppliers (EX: for plant milk, pineapples for vegan leather, and mushrooms for packaging). The PSAs promoted and were featured their 2021 RAP Summit
