About Me
I have been working in the entertainment industry since 2006 in New York. I started as a camera operator for local television station and moved up to directing live shows with 6 camera operators. I also produced segments and maintained the stations FCC regulation certificates among other administrative duties.
In 2015, I was afforded the opportunity to make a career change into locations for the scripted television industry. I was off to understand the life of freelancing and landed work on "Louie," "Pee-wee's Big Holiday," "The Characters," "Gotham" and, most recently, "Power." As the Location Assistant, I help make the writer's and director's visions come true by finding the locations where they would like to film. I also help with permitting with the city film commission.
I have been in the industry since 2008.
