Helping you tell your story
My specialty is story, and I can help you tell yours. Scripted, documentary, episodic, feature length, short…. I’ve walked all of these paths as editor, consulting editor, writer, story producer and producer. If you’re just starting a project, stuck in the middle, or fine tuning at the finish line, I’m available for short term consulting engagements or long term collaborations to edit/write an entire project.
Latest Release
THE PRISON WITHIN exposes the devastating impact untreated trauma has on individuals and communities through the powerful stories of survivors of violent crimes and prisoners incarcerated for murder in San Quentin prison. The prisoners and survivors come together and participate in the Victim Offender Education Group (VOEG)—an innovative restorative justice program enabling prisoners to discover how the trauma they’ve experienced contributed to their criminality and to understand the impact their crimes have on their victims. Together, the prisoners and survivors confront and expose the pain, shame, and rage caused by the extreme trauma they’ve experienced throughout their lives. Director Katherin Hervey, a former Los Angeles Public Defender and volunteer prison college instructor, is the first filmmaker to gain access to chronicle these intimate and revealing sessions inside San Quentin Prison.
