Rolling, speeding, action! These have not only become the words I live by on set, but words I live by in general.  Over the years, I have developed a ready, set, go mentality that has propelled me through my education and into my career. 

From an early age, I knew I wanted to create. If I didn't have a pencil or paintbrush in my hand, I had a camera. Art wasn't something I did, it was a part of me. 

I directed my first film when I was eight-years-old to show to my family and friends. Not only was I a prominent cast member in the Nancy Drew inspired short, I was also the camera and crew. I loved the process but was pretty bashful when it came to showing it to my family members. Let's just say, I'm not an actress. 

A little part of me always enjoyed a good story and the idea of "making movies" but I never imagined it would be something I would actually want to do when I "grew up".
