Janette is a Loyola Marymount University screenwriting graduate who currently lives in the Bay Area along with her writing and producing partner, Giovana Frediani. MGirls is her first project and the duo's first realized project. Along with writing constantly, Janette loves to listen to podcasts, collect records, and cuddle her 10 year old rescue dog, Nikki.
I am so incredibly excited that we are finally able to present the true story of the MGirls to the world! Making this short was one of the most fulfilling, exhausting, and incredible experiences and I'm so happy I was able to do it with my partner in creativity, Giovana. I hope everyone can feel the joy, love, and hardships of these four girls as fiercely as we did when we wrote the script and made this short. We're incredibly proud and excited to see what comes next!
