I am a seasoned creative producer with over a decade of experience in film and television production. My journey began in 2012, and since then, I have had the privilege of working on a diverse range of projects, from documentaries to lifestyle series. My role as a creative producer for Free Leonard Peltier at The Sundance Film Festival allowed me to hone my skills in managing teams, drafting interview questions, and overseeing the creative development of projects.
Throughout my career, I have successfully collaborated with various networks, including Lifetime, HBO, and Netflix, where I have produced and directed content that resonates with audiences.
