In recognition of World Suicide Prevention Day, I’m proud to have a story featured in @npr that explores the efforts of Indigenous groups in Alaska who are leading a new wave of research into community-based prevention strategies, which have shown such promise that they’re now being piloted in the military. This multi-year, multimedia project in the nation’s most impacted region for suicide death was made possible through the tremendous support of @Stanford University’s @billlanecenter and @kyukmedia When doing my earlier reporting on this topic, I came to realize that the communities most impacted by this issue are often unable to access digital media due to limited broadband availability. Radio, however, is ubiquitous. As a result, NPR became the dream partner for this story, and I couldn’t be more grateful to Western Bureau Chief Ravenna Koenig for providing such a supportive platform, and literally burning the midnight oil with me to bring out the best in this story. I’m deeply indebted to a long list of collaborators both in front of and behind the camera, but want to give my heartfelt thanks to the @uafairbanks Center for Alaska Native Health Research and the @usarmy @11thabnangels, whose passionate and empathetic teams provided the heart and soul of this story. Thank you to @fletchinator for helping to facilitate so many of the connections that made this reporting possible, to @karamilstein for being one of this project’s earliest supporters, to @afspnational for their guidance on safe messaging practices, and to @mattblack_blackmatt and @susanmeiselas whose lessons were instrumental in shaping my approach to this story. My heart goes out to each of you. Link in bio. 10 Sep 2024

‘An Act of Service’ premieres today on @nytimes Op-Docs. The film documents Rob, a firefighter living in the mountain west, as he undergoes ketamine-assisted psychotherapy to treat his PTSD. Thank you to the entire team @nytopinion for giving this film and the topics within such an incredible platform, and to my family @voyager.tv for supporting this project from the very beginning almost three years ago. What a journey. Check it out at the link in bio. Over the coming days I’ll be giving thanks to the many wonderful people who helped to make this story possible: Director: @bkapelow Production Co: @voyager.tv Producer: @davidterryfine EPs: @stilllifewithandrew @laurelkthomson @bkapelow NYT Senior Commissioning Producer: @christinebklyn NYT Supervising Producer: @garcia_alexandra NYT Series Producer: @yyyvonnneee NYT EP: @adamellick DP: @bkapelow Editors: @bobsmcgobbs @ienthekorean Composer: h hunt @morsels.website Therapy Music: @eastforest Sound Recording: Chase Bennett, Myles Davis Colorist: @sgllng @_baconx_ Sound Design + Mix: @davidpm @youtoocanwoo Sound EP: @l_peregrine Graphic Design: @baw_bak_ PA Intern: Emma Allshouse Thanks to: @boise_ketamine_clinic @nykolrice @dr_mike_boise @marisaradhaweppner @mhwordell @kyrabernauer @visionkitstudio @eastsidecamera @fitzberto @alissa_whitney @austendeery @meliz.yilmaz @charles_frank @spencercreigh 26 Mar 2024

I’m deeply honored to have some images and words featured in @time on suicide in the American West, which for decades has existed at the epicenter of our country’s struggle against self-harm and its associated stigma. It is an incredible privilege to have the opportunity to shed some light on an issue so close to me, which continues to affect the many people living in small, rural communities like the one I grew up in. I will be taking the time over the coming days to share some of the many stories I collected and to give proper thanks to the large team who made this project possible, but I’d like to start by expressing my deepest gratitude to all of the participants who were willing to share their stories, to @karamilstein and the folks at TIME for putting their trust in this project, to Mandy Oaklander for her exceptional story editing, the team @afspnational for their insights on this sensitive topic, and to @mattblack_blackmatt @susanmeiselas and the team @magnumphotos for their guidance and support throughout this process, which began nearly two years ago as a dream while driving through Southwest Wyoming. Special thanks to @mhwordell for being my companion on the road and to @laurelkthomson @madylion @bobsmcgobbs @spencercreigh and @no_jackson for their friendship and editorial advice when I needed it most. This one’s for you Dad. Link in bio. Caption • Ron, 68, is part of a four-generation ranching family, and underwent several reconstructive surgeries following a suicide attempt. “It’s hard to look me in the eye, and it's hard for folks to deal with that without a shudder going down their back,” he says. “That’s a real burden that I have from doing this. I can't just sit down with a friend and have a drink like I used to because it makes them uncomfortable for me to be around.” 13 Oct 2022

Had a blast shooting some cars out in the rain with @dearfriend.tv and VML. This was the most fun I’ve had on a shoot in a while. Shout out to the amazing Vancouver crew who got drenched for three straight days of exteriors. It literally rained nonstop. I watched several people switch out of their full Gore-tex fits into dry spares at lunch, like true professionals. Camera car and aerials by @spatialcamera, swipe to the end to see some ⛈️ BTS.

Such a joyful collaboration on this beautiful @caclosets campaign between directors @bkapelow and @nottheisland, @revery.is and @AKQA, which kicked off with a print spread in the AD100 edition of @archdigest. Big shout out to Harper the dog, who was an absolute pro. Lots of love to the amazing Portland team who brought this together (continued in the comments): 02 Jun 2026

Prisma Health • Here for Good Had a wonderful time capturing these stories down in Greenville - a massive thank-you to all the real healthcare providers who donated their time and expertise.

This weekend I learned about the passing of Angus Pratt, a man I only had the privilege of knowing for a short time, but who taught me tremendously about what it means to be alive. In 2018 Angus was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer and told he had roughly 5 years to live - a fact that never defined him, but rather gave him the freedom to pursue his interests with even greater vigor. While I’m not the right person to offer a eulogy, I couldn’t help but share a few reflections on the life of this special human being. In response to his diagnosis, Angus dedicated the rest of his time on earth to helping others. He traveled internationally to advocate on behalf of cancer research, shared in the grief of his peers as a support group facilitator, and made himself vulnerable to the public via his highly read blog. Through each of these acts, he made the world a less lonely place to be. What touched me most about Angus’ demeanor was how hopeful he was. Not just for living to see another day, but for the prospect of leaving this earth in better shape than he entered it - a desire embodied through daily action. I was told that the small film we made together was played at Angus’ funeral. No medium can capture the entire fullness of a person, but in the same way that knowing Angus for just a fragment of his life was able to make such a deep impression on me, I hope the stories we share can leave us feeling a little more hopeful, charitable and connected. Thank you Angus for letting me bear witness to your life, and for teaching me what more I can hope for mine. Photos by @trevorlang_ 13 Jan 2026

Some additional stories from my reporting for @npr are now available as a series on @alaskapublic and @kyukmedia for Mental Health Awareness Month. It’s been really gratifying to see the ongoing life of this project within the communities for whom it was most directly intended. My deepest gratitude goes out to the team @stanford @billlanecenter for their ongoing support of this work. Read or listen to my radio voice at the link in bio. 14 May 2025

2024 was one of the most difficult and fulfilling years I’ve had in my life. I pushed myself to the brink and learned a lot of hard lessons about my own limitations and the cost of pursuing stories on the fringes. So I’m very grateful to @_onepointfour for recognizing that effort and for bringing further visibility to the wonderful people profiled in these stories, along with the teams who supported their creation. Thank you to all the collaborators at @npr, @cancersociety and @nytimes - of which there are far too many to name here. Each of these projects and the people they allowed me to meet changed the way I see the world, and for that I couldn’t be more thankful. 07 Apr 2025

Endlessly grateful to the @asffestival jury for giving ‘An Act of Service’ the Best Documentary Award this weekend in York! It means the world to us to see this film continuing to resonate with audiences near and far - thanks to all our friends and collaborators who have helped along the journey, this one’s for y’all! Now, on to the feature…🤞🏻 14 Nov 2024
