About me

I have been passionate about filmmaking since I was eight years old, and it has been my goal to enter the field. I am currently still a student, but I am looking for opportunities to learn the practical aspects of film and television production. I am passionate, hardworking, and determined. I have been given several opportunities to explore editing and filmmaking for school and for work, and I know I would make an invaluable asset to any crew. I am a quick learner, an effective communicator, and in love with show business.

Additional information:
Experience
Actor; Peterborough, Ontario — 2017
Trent’s Business Program headed a project where they filmed some short videos about ethics in the workplace. For one weekend I went and provided my acting talents for several scenarios.
School Videographer; Peterborough, Ontario — removed
Cathy Gates of Trent University hired me on to do some promotional videos for many of Trent’s professors. The videos were in order to give professors a chance to talk about their research projects and why research at Ontario universities is so important for Canada. I completed fourteen of these videos for the school.
Production Assistant; Toronto, Ontario — Summer 2016
Unfortunately, the project I was unable to work on this project for an extended time because of scheduling conflicts, but for about a month I volunteered as a production assistant for Sasha Dymond Entertainment. As a production assistant, I helped with scheduling and emailing different contacts along with another production assistant. Had I been able to work with the crew longer, I would have also been able to work on a storyboard for an upcoming documentary they were preparing.
Background Actor; Toronto, Ontario — Spring and Summer 2011, Summer 2015
During the summer months, I worked as a background actor on many different closed sets for two different talent companies. I worked on television shows mainly, which included Degrassi, Hemlock Grove, The Next Step, and Heroes Reborn.
Student Filmmaker; Bowmanville, Ontario — 2010-Present
I have been making films for classes for a very long time. Working on my own and with friends, I have practiced my editing and camera skills, as well as writing, storyboarding and makeup skills. The films I have made have ranged from art projects for school assignments to commercials for my high school’s Arts Night in 2012.
Education
Trent University, Peterborough and Oshawa, Ontario —Honours English Major, Cultural Studies Minor, Class of 2017.
