“There's nothing more humbling than being one of the oldest persons in the room with a plethora of experience and having no one know who you are or care what you've done.”
Location:
Los Angeles, California, U.S.A.
Professional title:
Producer/director/writer
What do you do?
I'm a storyteller helping others execute their vision from paper to screen.
Why?
I work in media/film because I'm a multi-hyphenate and it encompasses all the artforms I love into one medium. I stay in this industry mainly because there are few brown women working in it and I want to see a better industry.
What should we read?
Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer
