Behind the Camera
🎬 Award-Winning Executive Producer & Creative Director
​
My journey in video production began with a love for storytelling and has grown into a career leading creative teams, producing award-winning content, and building connections through powerful visuals. With a Bachelor of Science in Mass Communication and a Master of Arts in Film & Television Producing, I’ve combined my academic foundation with over ten years of hands-on experience to shape stories that inspire and entertain.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of serving as a Production & Studios Manager, Showrunner, and Executive Producer, guiding projects from concept to broadcast. I’ve overseen crews of 20+ professionals, managed complex budgets, and delivered programming that reaches audiences in the hundreds of thousands. Highlights include producing a Telly Award–winning show, leading Alliance for Community Media’s Best TV Show of 2025, and creating festival-recognized dramas and documentaries like Threshold: There’s a Hero in All of Us and Now and Forever: A Story of Freedom on the Move.
Beyond creative direction, I bring a comprehensive understanding of the business of media — blending leadership, production strategy, and technical expertise to drive results. I’ve mastered the full production pipeline, from scriptwriting and budgeting to shoot scheduling, line producing, and executive producing. I stay fluent in the tools that keep projects sharp and efficient, including Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, and Avid. This dual lens — both creative and operational — allows me to not only deliver exceptional storytelling but also to forecast industry trends, optimize workflows, and align production services with evolving audience demand and sales opportunities.
​
What excites me most is using this expertise to lead teams, shape content strategies, and make data-driven creative decisions that anticipate where the industry is headed. As a showrunner and production leader, I thrive at the intersection of artistry and business — building productions that are not only visually compelling but also strategically positioned for growth. Storytelling, at its best, doesn’t just entertain; it informs culture, sparks dialogue, and strengthens communities. My mission is to continue leading productions that achieve both creative excellence and measurable impact.
