Long before I was a filmmaker I was a kid in Rhode Island beating on a drum set. Never satisfied with learning the same old drum beats, I always experimented with my own quirky grooves. What I didn't know at the time was that my need to come up with my own rhythmic journeys was my inner storyteller waking up. After spending many years flirting with different media including acting, standup comedy, installation art, writing and songwriting, I made my first film. It was a silly mockumentary about an Alien culture and an eccentric French adventurer who became their champion. I screened it for an audience of 300 people at an arts festival and that night changed my life. I had discovered the power of cinema and found my calling. Since then I've worked on music videos, narrative fiction, commercials, corporate testimonials, documentary and more. I've honed my skills as a writer, DP, director and editor. I'm a big believer in the Robert Rodriguez school of thought, that a filmmaker should have mastery in every stage of the filmmaking process. After a disappointing stint at film school, I dropped out with another student and started Shooting Blind LLC (www.shootingblindfilms.com), a video production company in the Bay Area. We have worked on everything from small indie projects to big corporate clients including Facebook, GE Digital, Glass Door, Indeed and more. We even had a great afternoon working with Sir Richard Branson. In addition to traditional filmmaking roles, I am a Part 107 licensed drone pilot and love taking to the skies to find the best shot to help tell a story. Thanks for reading my story and I hope to meet you!

I'm a San Francisco-based producer with 12+ years of journalism and TV production experience across the US and Middle East. My diverse experience ranges from working as a fixer and producer in conflict zones to producing a half-hour monthly feature program for CNBC about investment opportunities and business trends in the Middle East (just me and one cameraman/editor!). I'm equally adept at conceiving and planning a story idea, writing a script, managing a crew, and overseeing the edit and assembly. Doing news for more than a decade has made me versatile and calm under pressure, and I pride myself on getting things done. I'm currently back in my hometown of San Francisco, an exciting place to cover subjects such as tech innovation, alternative culture, wellness trends, and an international arts, food and lifestyle scene. I am also well-versed in international and local politics. I love to create and I'm excited to work with you!

I love stories. I am a storyteller at heart, and telling unique stories drives me. We all relate in some form or another, and stories are the key to human connection. I make films to raise awareness among diverse audiences and inspire viewers to make positive contributions. For the past four years, I've worked as a film producer and editor on both local and international film shoots, including two feature documentaries. I work as a one-woman team to produce, shoot, and edit short format corporate films. I hunt for stories that humanize the marginalized, expose different angles of an argument, and impassion viewers to take action. I strive to help viewers understand people and emotions through beautiful images. I'm extremely hardworking and very adventurous. I enjoy taking artistic risks, challenging myself, and using my creativity to tell fresh, innovative stories.
