About

I’m a New York based producer and production coordinator with a background in film, television, live events, and branded content. I’ve worked in the production department of six televised award shows, coordinated commercial shoots, and produced over 40 short-form productions. I’m experienced in managing crews, timelines, and logistics across fast-paced environments, and I bring a strong mix of creative problem-solving and structural focus to every project. My goal is always to deliver work that’s organized, visually strong, and built on collaboration.
