ABOUT ME ◯◯◯

Born in St. Louis, Missouri, I entered the world at the millennium, the third of a set of triplets. A younger sister rounded out the cast of compulsory plays, puppet shows, and iMovie videos for a family audience. In the following decades, my passion for storytelling and my love of cinema remained constants. I pursued my passion in university where I was able to make lifelong connections with similar minded people, and hone my craft. As I enter the world of independent filmmaking, I hope to continue to tell boundary pushing stories in inventive ways. I have a penchant for genre-bending satire, and like things with a witty bite to them. I am politically active and my work tends to reflect that. Being a filmmaker is the one and only dream I have, and I will stop at nothing to be successful in doing what I love.

Outside of filmmaking I keep myself busy with a never-ending stack of books, swimming in any body of water I can find, cooking food from all over the world, thrifting and re-embellishing vintage clothes, and of course, watching anything and everything. I keep myself grounded with daily yoga, my close-knit family, long pensive walks, and trivia nights at the local pizza joint. I love a good party, and I’m always the last one on the dance floor. I travel as often as I can, there’s no where I wouldn’t visit.

I am confident with my attention to detail, dedication to communication, outside the box thinking, and uncompromising vision that I can take any story, idea, or product, and take it to the next level.
