I was an associate story producer and stills photographer from pre-production all the way through field and post on the pilot season of the adventure show Mud, Sweat and Beards. The show follows two friends and survival experts as they attempt to go from barely surviving to absolutely thriving in some of the most extreme environments. From the the dry desert of New Mexico, the muggy Alaskan tundra to the bare Icelandic fjords—this show gave me enough stories to torture grandchildren for a lifetime.
