Summary

As a creative, I have worked in many different environments and have worn many different hats in the film industry, from below the line to above the line, and from in front of the camera to behind. My experiences have led me to become a competent, charismatic, and caring leader, capable of adapting to nearly any situation thrown my way. My deep passion and love for storytelling guides me as I work through the industry.
