About me
I have always been a storyteller. The art of filmmaking and storytelling has always come naturally to me. My Film career started in the first two years of University. While studying to get my film degree I gained experience in the creation of short films. I also spent my summers on feature film sets learning from industry professionals. I have worked in a variety of departments. everything from production assistant and production secretary, to a writer, producer, and director. I have also done extensive work as a script supervisor. Not only was I able to network with these industry professionals, but I was also able to learn from them; ask as many questions as possible to have a broader range of knowledge in the film industry. By doing so, I wanted to be able to jump in and help wherever I could possibly be needed. But I also want to use the skills I learned in these departments to become a better director; one who is able to help her team from every angle. My main goal in this industry is to be able to support myself as a writer and director. I am a go-getter, a self-starter, and an innovator willing to do whatever it takes to make the vision of a story a reality.Referees:
