With a Master of Arts in Film/Cinema/Video Studies from Columbia University and a Bachelor of Arts in Film Studies from the University of Colorado Boulder, I have cultivated a robust career in event communications and management. Currently working as a Freelance Event Communications specialist, I leverage my expertise to independently manage event-related tasks. Previously, I served as a Marketing & Communications Associate at Winged Keel Group, where I managed over 70 annual events, supported brand marketing initiatives, and oversaw office operations. My role as Manager of Artistic Operations at the New York Television Festival honed my skills in ticketing operations and community management for over 700 creators and filmmakers. My diverse experience in communications, marketing, and operations has equipped me with a unique skill set to excel in dynamic environments.
