What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters creativity, collaboration, and growth opportunities.

I am a detail-oriented and collaborative production and project management professional with a proven track record in branded entertainment and creative campaigns across various platforms. My experience spans overseeing complex projects from conception to completion, managing cross-functional teams, and delivering world-class content. I thrive in fast-paced environments and excel at creating clarity out of chaos.

At Nickelodeon Animation Studios, I served as the Senior Director of Animation Production, where I led production teams for major preschool franchises, managed large-scale budgets, and implemented project management tools to streamline workflows. My leadership has resulted in significant team growth and successful project delivery, including high-profile productions like the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and the first Nick Jr. Podcast series.

With a Master's degree in Media Studies and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Traditional Animation, I bring both creative and analytical skills to my work. I am passionate about mentoring talent and fostering a collaborative environment, ensuring that every project not only meets but exceeds expectations.
