Skills
- Excellent written and verbal communication
- Valuable part of teams as both support and leadership Can easily adapt or pivot based on feedback received
- I'm constantly learning and embrace the opportunity to build up new skills and knowledge
- I've shown aptitude for generating a range of interesting concepts and developing them into more fleshed out stories/ideas that can sustain a film or scenario
Accomplishments
During the course of my studies, I've written and directed four films, and was directly involved in all stages of the process. I made my first three on my own, and I led a team of four others over the course of a year for the production of my upcoming film, Ice Cream Social.
My previous film, Pit Stop, was generally well-received and was included in multiple film festivals.
