Favorite memory from a project you worked on?
How much time do you have! Recently, I shot a music video in a New Jersey State Park. The location was a beautiful spring which required hiking to get there. So it was myself and the producer, Riley, literally “Running Up That Hill” with all of the camera gear.
What is the wildest thing you have ever written?
When I was at Sarah Lawrence, I wrote a 20 page paper comparing the performance of 20th-century silent film actor, Lillian Gish and Meryl Streep.
Currently, I am working on a short film inspired by a recent heartbreak and the idea of how many faces you have to wear throughout your adult life.
Favorite directors?*
Okay this is a nuts question, there are so many I admire and aspire to emulate - Linda Mendoza, Celia Rowlson-Hall, Celine Song, Mia Lidofksy, Rob Reiner, Melina Matsoukas, and Ryan Coogler
*I have a spreadsheet for this. It’s color coded and divided into categories (theatre, film, tv, music videos) that I can send upon request.
