Director Statement

My career in film began with a love for film. I realized I could be making movies instead of just watching them. I joined Women in Film Arkansas, and encouraged by their workshops, wrote and directed my first 48 Hour Film Festival. I have since written and directed five short films and am on the film festival circuit.

My film education began in 2020 when I enrolled in The Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival Bootcamp where I wrote and directed my first documentary, "Through a Child's Eyes." I have since taken many directing and screenwriting programs through the Inception to Projection Filmmaking Program in Hot Springs, Arkansas

I learned this business from the ground up, acting and crewing on numerous films. On top of the directing my own films, I have helped many other directors as cast and crew for their films. Having worked every job on the team helps me be a better director.

Through film, I have been able to bring my ideas and stories to life. I love the whole process of filmmaking from the initial idea to writing, casting, directing and editing. Being able to sit in the theater and hear the audiences' reaction to my films has been priceless.
