DIR - Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld docu-feature, INTERMEDIACY 🏳️‍🌈 | Fulbright Scholar, 🇩🇪 2023/24

About

A proud small-towner and Penn Stater, over the past decade, I’ve used video to explore history, culture and identity for leading media brands - Racked/Vox Media, MAKERS/Verizon Media, McGee Media, and A+E Networks. Based in New York City, I have produced, filmed, and edited content spotlighting incredible stories and people - especially women, LGBTQIA+ folks, and Black Americans. Completing 100+ short docs, ad spots, and explainer videos, I have refined my skills while focusing on platforming marginalized voices. Most recently, I earned a Fulbright research/study scholarship to Germany to pursue my first feature-length documentary project, INTERMEDIACY: THE LIFE OF DR. MAGNUS HIRSCHFELD, which explores the roots of queer identity in the modern, Western world and how this history shapes today’s LGBTQIA+ community.
