About me

Storytelling is at the backbone of my work and I am eager to merge my production experience to produce material that enriches the community. My work is multifaceted with a background in various production departments, from Executive Producer to Transportation Coordinator. I embrace new challenges and believe an excellent producer is one who can move the entire production forward efficiently while maintaining a positive and inclusive work environment.

I assist production companies with seeing their creative vision to fruition. Margarita Blush Productions trusted me to produce their latest reiteration of Unfolding, a puppet theatre production debuting at The Tank NYC. I worked directly with the client to represent her artistic vision via social media marketing and through a comprehensive press packet. I became the lead liaison between the cast and crew, negotiated all letters of agreement, managed the overall budget, and organized our press-night with reviewers. Our production successfully sold out more than half of the run and is now planning its international tour to Bulgaria, London, and Scotland.

Hot Snakes Media (A&E’s “The Plot Against America,” TLC’s “Breaking Amish”) and I collaborated on their debut dramatic podcast series set to air Spring 2020. As Lead Producer and Production Coordinator, I had the opportunity to independently determine the most efficient and creative strategy for executing this unique project. Using my experience as an actor/director, I assisted in directing all five episodes and worked with talent to create the best possible take.

I was first introduced to the producer role when I collaborated with On Time Studios in their voice-over department. It is my responsibility to edit, record, and finalize content remotely within 48 hours. I speak directly with clients in order to produce the highest quality content to match the product’s specific needs. This experience demonstrated my ability to meet deadlines while being efficient and detail oriented.

My collaboration with BuzzFeed and Elite Daily as a performer enhanced my exposure to audiences across the country and improved my understanding of the impact of content. I used this experience to produce/direct/star in an original series, Stupid Questions, in association with Scrudio Studios educating millennials on hard to grasp political concepts.
