ABOUT

EXECUTIVE PRODUCER

I bridge creative vision with business execution across film and television.

 

I've helped build and have led organizations providing extensive vendor services to major Hollywood studios while developing original content.

 

My expertise spans award-winning marketing campaigns for blockbuster franchises, integrated workflows for high-value IPs, commissioned production services for network tv and independent film.

 

I’m now pioneering a new film and tv industrial  infrastructure in Idaho through CO\\OP Studios.

My integrated approach provides efficiency while creating content, developing infrastructure, and go-to market strategies, whether for independent films earning festival recognition or marketing campaigns with global reach.
