As an integrated producer, I have produced videos, stills, and animations for a myriad of clients. I’ve been the point person on big and small productions in studio and on locations far and wide and right around the corner. I strive to support the creative with production solutions that are nimble yet effective and thoughtful. I can proudly say I’ve worked on amazing assignments with hard working teams and talented creative professionals I value greatly. The expression "It Takes a Village" is the foundation to all the innovative campaigns I have produced and is why I love what I do.
As VP Director of Art Production at Arnold Worldwide, I restructured the department and hired producers from a wide range of backgrounds that complimented the team. I was their sounding board, mentor and advocate. My team and I were the problem solvers answering to the reality of tighter and tighter budgets and timelines and we welcomed that challenge.
No matter the medium, I bring the same experience and love of the craft to each of my productions. I believe that getting all the details of a production right and communicated to everyone is the backbone of the job. I always strive to find just the right photographer, director or animator for each project, even if they are half way around the world. When that is done, I dive into those production details so my team and our clients know they are in good hands and everything is taken care of.
A few other things about me……One of my favorite movies is Young Frankenstein. I was fortunate enough to live in France, Italy and Germany while I worked as a model for editorial assignments and runway for various fashion designers. My rock is my husband and son who make me laugh out loud each day and remind me what is really important....Live for today and be good to others.
Some of my pearls of wisdom I live by….
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
Say what you mean and mean what you say.
Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
