I graduated from Savannah College of Art and Design in 2016, with a B.F.A. in Film & Television with an emphasis in Directing. In 2019, I received my M.A. in Specialized Journalism (The Arts) at the University of Southern California, where I specialized in multimedia reporting on queer subcultures.

As for professional experience, I interned at Sony Pictures Television in their Drama Development department for three semesters. Subsequently, I was an Executive Assistant in the Current Programming department at Freeform. After this, I was briefly Writer's PA on Season 3 of Freeform's millennial drama, GOOD TROUBLE, before being promoted to Showrunner’s Assistant and then Staff Writer – all within the span of a few months.

My previous short films and music videos have been screened at several film festivals around the world. In fact, my undergraduate senior thesis film, VIOLET, won a Jury Prize at the 2016 Atlanta Film Festival and received an International Red Dot Award.

Additionally, my pilot EXIT STRATEGY was a semi-finalist in the 2018 Women in Film x Black List Episodic Lab and ranked in the Top 50 in Coverfly’s 2020 Launch Pad Pilot Competition, where it won the Artillery Creative Guaranteed Signing Award.

My other interests include theme parks, Harry Potter, gin-forward craft cocktails, and young adult novels.
