About me
A resourceful, creative, and ambitious production assistant, building a career in commercial, film, and TV producing. I possess excellent project management, research, and communication skills. These have been acquired through my Masters in International Film Business, role as a Production Runner on Season 2 of Channel 4’s Joe Lycett’s Got Your Back, two years of creative PR campaign administration, three years of writing, producing, and presenting multiple podcasts, award-nominated screenwriting, and degree in English Literature. I have used these roles to assist producers, directors, and production coordinators with administrative tasks; write, design, & edit multiple pitch decks; build strong relationships with production crew; produce short films; and write a published novel. I have acquired exceptional time management skills with the ability to multi-task and communicate detailed information in a concise manner. Having recently completed my Masters at the London Film School, I am eager to undertake challenging work with production companies, assisting development and production teams with administration, research, bookings, idea generation, pitching, pre-production, and other tasks where my professional aptitude and experience can provide valuable support.
