About Mira
Born and raised by the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, my work has always combined storytelling, media technologies, and human relationship. I studied philosophy & comparative history of ideas at the University of Washington in Seattle and now work as a freelancer in NYC.
In college, I worked at my school’s daily paper for four years as a writer, editor, and eventually, editor-in-chief. In this role I edited daily articles for web and print, oversaw the quarterly magazine, and managed a newsroom of 21 editors and 200 writers, illustrators, and photographers.
After graduating during the pandemic, I started filming high-end, destination weddings for an internationally-acclaimed production company called Moon & Back Co. As the only US-based filmmaker on the team, I filmed, edited, and delivered the majority of the North American films. My favorite part of this job, however, was collecting stories of love, friendship, and culture through film.

In all of my personal work, I aim to center an interdisciplinary, empathetic approach to questions of health, wonder, and connection. Over the last year, I co-founded Mundane Revelations, a podcast interviewing artists, scientists, and athletes on creative and spiritual practice. I am a forever-student of martial arts, ecology, and the languages of the planets.
Whether through editing a book, designing a publication for a non-profit, or collaborating on a multimedia project with video and audio components, I have the skills and the passion to help you actualize your vision. My greatest strength is my ability to build relationships of trust with whomever I work with.
