I was twelve before I understood showgirls, elephants, and magicians and filmmakers were not common childhood companions. 

​

At ten I was running coffee for Fox Pictures as a production assistant.

​

At fourteen I rode horseback across California and Nevada for the Pony Express.

 

By eighteen I produced my first independent feature documentary.

 

My degree is a Master’s in life experience earned producing films, interviewing rockstars, writing screenplays, fundraising for nonprofits, and helping people tell their stories.

 

What’s yours?
