Championing bold artistic voices while revealing the delicate truth of our humanity.

Hakhu Project
IMPACT STORY
Los pulmones del mundo.

My first step into Ecuador's lush rainforest in 2014.
In time, I found myself more integrated into the comunity of activisits, conservation leaders and storytellers.

Soon, I began collaborating with Leo Cerda to help found the Hakhu Foundation.

This ongoing connection to the Ecuadorian Amazon isn't just about filmmaking. It's about a human connection to a world of mystery, and the storied past that, with each return, deepens my commitment to defending this vital place.
Hakhu is an Indigenous-led organization supporting female empowerment across the Amazon.
