## About

```text
At The Bomb Shelter Film Company, I support original film and television development through creative research, pitch materials, visual presentations and story summaries. I also coordinate writers' rooms, meetings and workshops, keeping schedules, briefing materials and follow-up actions organised.

At Bomb Commercials, I led creative and cultural research for commercial treatments and director pitch presentations, turning briefs and visual references into clear stories. I worked with Teboho Mahlatsi and directors on pitch ideas and creative materials.

Across projects including Shaka iLembe and work with The Chocolate Tribe, I supported creative and production teams with documents, schedules and delivery tracking. My background also includes motion graphics and video editing, and I use Adobe tools and AI-assisted workflows to develop visual content.
