What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented and strategic creative executive with over 11 years of experience managing complex projects in the entertainment industry.

I have a proven track record of driving innovative solutions and delivering results that exceed expectations.
Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Director of Development at Artists for Artists, where I successfully managed a slate of 60 projects, facilitating relationships with external partners and ensuring projects progressed through the development cycle. My experience as a Creative Consultant has further honed my ability to analyze projects and provide valuable feedback, contributing to the success of numerous initiatives.
I am now transitioning into project management, eager to apply my skills in a new context. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can utilize my problem-solving abilities and strategic thinking to lead teams and deliver exceptional results.
