In an age when media is consolidated in the hands of a few behemoth corporations and billionaires, independent media is more important than ever. I created Three Pines Production Company as a means to elevate important voices that are being missed in the conversation via informative, award-winning documentaries about the struggles of everyday, working class people.

The goal of Three Pines Production Company is to bring people together, rather than to further divide us. Regular working people of all political spectrums are going through the same struggles—day in and day out—from the skyrocketing cost of groceries to unsafe and hostile workplaces to toxic disasters in our backyards. We have more in common with each other than we realize and great films can tell the stories to bridge those gaps.

That’s where truly independent filmmaking can come in and take the reins from a corporate media that only continues to serve itself and its wealthy owners.
