Here’s My Deal

Resume Highlights

I began my career in NYC at Discovery Networks, but my love for comedy grew from watching Molly Shannon's iconic character, Mary Katherine Gallagher, on SNL. After taking improv and sketch classes at UCB, I started writing and producing with like-minded individuals. I transitioned to Condé Nast as a Senior Producer for editorial video content, working with brands such as Allure and Glamour. In 2020, I moved to LA and worked in various freelance roles before becoming a Senior Creative Producer for branded content at BuzzFeed. My focus is to tell bold, hilarious stories that center around female friendship and the adventures that come with it.

Accolades:

In 2016 my mockumentary web series The Lifestyle Girls was a semi-finalist in the PYPO Just For Laughs “Beyond The Box: Playing It Short” competition.
