About

I am a graduate of the University of San Francisco where I received a B.S in Business Management with a minor in Film Studies. My dream is to increase diversity in film and television and showcase issues and topics that aren't covered as frequently. I am reliable, flexible, creative, friendly, motivated, and hard-working and look forward to using those traits to make a positive impact in the workplace. I am eager to apply my educational knowledge, work experience, and positive personality to help a company thrive in the competitive market. Thank you for your time and consideration.
