About Me.

That trope about the eldest daughter who churns through high-achiever roles to land as a producer? I'm living it.

​

It turns out that "eldest daughter energy" is just another name for a producer's superpower. Growing up, I thought you had to choose between being creative or strategic. I opted for the "safer" path of science and anthropology, only to realize my real talent was being the one who could do both.

 

A great producer is the blend. You have to be strategic enough to see the big picture and empathetic enough to manage the creative details.

​

My job isn't just to keep timelines. It's to be the connective tissue for a team. I'm the one who translates a client's biggest fears into a clear brief, and a team's wildest ideas into a concrete plan. I thrive on creating the 'safe space' for ridiculously talented people (like on BRINEE) and digging into data to find a human problem (like on Pony & Post).

​

At the end of the day, that’s the kind of work that fuels me. That, and I'll probably ask if you've eaten lunch.
