COLA Award Professional of the Year: Documentary/Reality TV

As a Location Professional, I work as both a Location Scout and Location Manager, bringing projects to life by finding and managing the perfect settings. In 2015, I was honored with the California On Location Award (COLA) for Professional of the Year in Documentary/Reality TV—a prestigious recognition that, in Northern California, has been awarded to only two location professionals.

Hunting for film locations has taken me across Northern California, the Central Valley, and the Sierra Nevadas. I’ve crawled into deep caves, scaled high mountains, and explored remote corners—all in the service of finding the perfect shot.

I’m well-versed in navigating the complexities of permits, having secured them from numerous cities and counties throughout California. Understanding the logistics and legalities ensures productions run smoothly, on time, and on budget. Being a Location Professional is a rare combination of adventure and responsibility—two elements I embrace on every project.
