In Fall 2020, I directed a film called Jackpot, coordinating and securing multiple shooting locations on and off-campus and making sure that our production adhered to all necessary safety protocols.

While interning at Universal Television in Los Angeles last spring, I spent my weekends volunteering as a Production Assistant on multiple first-year fellowship short films at the American Film Institute. I directly assisted each film's Production Designer, Cinematographer, Gaffer, and Key Grip. I conducted basic PA responsibilities--building props, setting up lights and equipment, and going on runs for members of production.

My roles on this shoot included setting up lights and equipment, as well as building props.
