About
I’m a filmmaker and project manager outside of Philadelphia, PA. Within filmmaking, I specifically working as producer, production manager, assistant director, writer, and/or editor.
I also write about disability and LGBTQIA+ issues and have worked in disability advocacy.
I particularly love making films that highlight minority groups and make efforts to be inclusive and have authentic representation.
film and media production
For my creative projects, I always aim to be inclusive and have authentic representation in the story and in casting.I enjoy working with teams to organize and coordinate film and project logistics just as much as I love the creative side of filmmaking as well. When I'm not scheduling and budgeting, you can find me working excitedly on a new script or story idea.
Project Management
I bring my natural organization skills and attention to detail to every project. Managing projects does not just mean organizing teams, processing documents, and task deadlines.As a project manager, my job also includes team mediation, stakeholder communications, risk assessment, problem solving, consulting subject matter experts, even taking on tasks that need an extra hand.
