Description
I'm a multi-award-winning screenwriter, director, and producer with a background in film production in Los Angeles.
My short film LOVE SPELL played at 14 film festivals around the world, took home 11 awards, and premiered at FilmQuest where it was nominated for Best Utah Short in 2021.
In 2021, I was a co-writer for a thriller feature script VICTORIOUS RED and won an award through Robinson Film Awards.
I've worn a variety of hats on film productions both small and large, and have enjoyed every minute of it.
Most recently, I worked as an Assistant Director on an independent feature film in 2022 shot in Utah.
In 2021, I was a Script Supervisor for Harmon Brothers on a Kizik Sprint 5 commercial shot in Utah. I developed and maintained a comprehensive spreadsheet with video takes and notes for director and editor. I managed a record of wardrobe and set changes resulting in 100% continuity, no production delays, and benefited the editorial team.
In 2020, I worked with Caravan West Productions in Buffalo as a Research Assistant. I helped build contact lists, assembled data and organized information, provided in-depth research at sites of interest, brainstormed production details, and storylines with the owner and producer.
