I am a filmmaker with a specialty in post-production, and a passion for stories that further our understanding of the human experience.
I’m also a highly organized spreadsheet wiz, a strong communicator, and an empathetic and solutions-oriented leader.
I have worked for a decade as an independent director and producer, as well as a working across range of professional experience including networks (Amazon Studios), digital powerhouses (CollegeHumor/Dropout, Condé Nast), with major brands and publishers (VEVO, Kohls, Subway, Rite Aid, Google, Apple), and non-profit organizations (Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, The Innocence Project, BRAC, KIPP Charter Schools).
When I’m not working, you can usually find me planning my next trip, baking, enjoying the outdoors, playing with my cat, reading, playing tennis, on a camping trip, or at a concert.
