Originally from North Carolina, I received my Bachelor of Arts in Film Studies (with a Leadership Studies minor) from the University of North Carolina Wilmington in 2016. In NC, I ran a production company in Downtown Wilmington, worked for the Cucalorus Film Festival, and founded the NC fILM forum. I started directing documentaries at age thirteen, making my way to award-winning director by the age of twenty-three. I produced countless commercial projects around North Carolina before I was brought on as the staff Production Coordinator for Bonesteel Films in Asheville, NC.
When I moved to LA, I started over, working as a freelance production assistant before working my way up to production coordinator on various commercial projects. Recognizing my passion for the business side of filmmaking, I pursued different positions as an aspiring producer. For example, I worked at a talent agency for six months before working full time at an Entertainment Law Firm in Beverly Hills for a year, while also freelancing as a 1st Assistant Director around Southern California on the weekends. In my spare time, I've served as an ambassador for the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and other community organizations. I still participate as an Associate member of the Hollywood Radio & Television Society while also in the Commercials Peer Group at the Television Academy.
During the COVID-19 Pandemic, I continued to work in Film/TV as a Production Manager as well as a certified COVID Compliance Officer & Testing Coordinator. I was grateful to continue working during these unprecedented times in a capacity that allowed me to help keep my peers safe and healthy on the job. I especially enjoyed working as the full time COVID-19 Testing Coordinator for Pie Town Productions.
I went back to full-time freelancing in the summer of 2020 before joining IATSE 871 as an APOC.
