I find joy creatively leading projects from initial brief to final delivery.

I’ve spent my career at the intersection of creative and production. I understand the importance of aligning on brand positioning and defining a compelling creative platform, but I also know the ins-and-outs of what it takes to bring great work to life.

Expertise

Creative Strategy

I work with brands to identify their goals and hone their message—uncovering truths that resonate with audiences of all kinds.

Creative Direction

I develop platforms with a distinctive voice and visual style that define how brands communicate with their audience, then collaborate with creative teams to keep it consistent.

Directing

Working with small teams and real subjects, I shape ideas into memorable and meaningful stories that often celebrate humanity and the connections we share.

Producing

I manage clients, creatives, budgets, and timelines to ensure projects are completed successfully—exceeding everyone’s expectations.

Post Supervision & Editing

I build and manage post-production teams, and if needed, hop into the edit myself—assembling, cutting, and refining the story—until everyone is happy with the result.

Organizational Development & Leadership

I consult on how to structure and grow creative, production, and post processes that are not only successful, but sustainable.

How can we work together?

As a Creative Producer, I can lead the creative vision of a project from initial brief to final delivery—navigating feedback from stakeholders at every turn to find the best creative solutions.

As a Copywriter, I can develop messaging and concepts, then translate these ideas into storytelling for any kind of medium.

As a Director, I can elevate creative through a humanist approach to filmmaking that embraces the stories of real people.

Beyond my experience, I wanted to share the values I bring to every collaboration.

Intention

I believe a clear purpose is the key to success. It takes time to identify and clarify, but once uncovered, it becomes the secret sauce to inspiring teams and connecting with audiences.

Care

I become invested in the people I work with and the projects that I take on. A career in creativity is a privilege, and so I feel a deep responsibility to give each opportunity my best.

Curiosity

Understanding is a never-ending pursuit, and I wouldn’t want it any other way. Immersing myself in worlds and ideas that expand my perspective is why I go to work every day.
