About me

I am a hard working dedicated person who has always loved stories ever since my parents would read to me and my brother when we were young. I graduated from St. Mary's College of Maryland with a degree in Psychology and a minor in Film and Media Studies. However, I always knew that I wanted to go into film. Telling stories has always been something I've been passionate about, so after school I wanted to get more knowledge about this industry so I got into the New York Film Academy and started working on my Masters Degree. While studying for the degree I found that of all the different positions within the film industry I most enjoyed Production Design. I like how it makes you think about the characters in the story in a different way from most everyone else and also I really like being able to build things with my hands and seeing the physical manifestation of my work after it's been built. I think I would be a valuable member of any film crew willing to have me.
