I’m a Mexican-American investigative journalist and filmmaker based in California and Pennsylvania. I’m currently a co-founding producer with reverie documentaries, a production company dedicated to telling nonfiction, ambitiously-driven, journalistic documentaries and narratives that explore bold, untold stories about our world.

I am currently working on a new investigation with The New York Times magazine and am in post-production on my feature documentary, “Keep Quiet and Forgive” - a powerful documentary that gives voice to Amish sexual abuse survivors who broke their silence.

I previously worked as a producer at Univision, Fusion, and The Wall Street Journal. I have written for The Guardian, The Fuller Project, The New York Times, NPR, Cosmopolitan, Agence France-Presse, Type Investigations, and Latino USA, among others.

My approach to storytelling is based on deeply reported, accountability journalism and human-driven narratives. My specialty is long-form and investigative coverage—focused on gender issues, environmental justice, sexual violence, and Latin America.

At Agence France-Presse’s Mexico City bureau, I wrote a La Reforma story on Central American migrants' use of mobile technology to safeguard their journey to the U.S. At Univision, I co-produced a documentary on Mexico's underground sex-trafficking ring (English adaptation from Fusion's documentary, Pimp City). At Fusion, I produced hour-long episodes for the Netflix investigative series, The Naked Truth about radicals in Europe and sexual abuse in fraternities. I have reported throughout India, Italy, and Mexico.

I’m working on a book proposal based on my investigation into Amish sexual abuse, and am repped by CAA literary agency.

I completed my Master of Arts in multimedia journalism from UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism
and my bachelors in english from Chapman University.
