I am a writer and filmmaker & I am driven by finding fresh ways to tell stories, share perspectives, and create vulnerable art. Film - I work in the commercial space to up skill, the films I truly want to make are about real people, challenging emotions, and deep reflection. Poetry - My true purpose is naming uncomfortable feelings to give them more volume & less power. Creative Writing - I wrote my first short story at 7 years old. Whether it is a script, a short story, journalling - I will always write. Commercially I have worked with fashion & culture publications, website content creation, ghost writing, and more. Most recently I consulted for a startup to launch their marketplace online; built their brand story, refined their aesthetic, and established an engaged online community.
