About Me

As a producer, I’m always looking for exciting collaborations and am particularly drawn to science fiction projects and stories about women finding their own place in a world that tries to define them. I’ve been grateful to make projects with fantastic filmmakers and learn and grow as a creator with the support of a variety of Industry programs. In addition to my independent film work, I have spent the last decade working on animated projects at Mainframe Studios including our latest IP “The Immortals & The Shadow Realm” featured in Deadline and “It’s Andrew” available on CBC Gem.
