Summary

Dynamic film and media producer with a dual grounding in Los Angeles indie filmmaking and broadcast-class television production. Trained by industry leaders at New York Film Academy’s Los Angeles campus, I honed end-to-end producing skills on set before advancing from Production Assistant to Assistant Producer for PBS Arizona’s flagship public-affairs show, Arizona Horizon. I later broadened my commercial acumen as a Communications & Media Intern for Blackstone’s LaunchPad program, crafting investor-facing content and market analyses for a global portfolio. Recently graduated from Thunderbird School of Global Management (ASU) with a MGM focused on Creative Industries and Design Thinking, I integrate disciplined financial oversight, cross-functional leadership, and AI-enabled workflows to deliver high-impact features, series, and branded content on schedule and under budget.
