I am an LA based director and editor who is passionate about telling women's stories. Credits include working in editorial on Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters (Sony), Jonathan Levine’s Snatched (FOX) and Long Shot (Lionsgate) as well as David Fincher’s Videosyncrasy (HBO). I edited the series My Dead Ex which premiered at SXSW in 2018 and I'm currently working in editorial on Borderlands (Lionsgate). I previously directed the comedy sketch Racist Baby (streaming on Who Haha), My Life Worked Out (featured on Funny or Die) and most recently the award winning web series Love in 2020, a pandemic rom com that I hope makes people laugh and feel less alone.
