Growing up as a first-generation Asian American in the San Francisco Bay Area, I’ve been devoted to authentic and diverse storytelling my whole life. I grew up on a diet of foreign cinema, a variety of literature, and all the best media the early 2000s had to offer. I found my love for film production at the Academy of Art University, eventually obtaining my bachelor's degree in Journalism and Film Arts from Long Beach State University.
I jumped straight into television after graduating college, working as a Production Assistant on ABC’s American Idol and Rebel before taking a four-year-long residency with the global entertainment company DONE+DUSTED. Through my years growing from a coordinator to producer with D+D, I helped to conceptualize, develop, and bring to life dozens of productions for major brands, networks, and streamers. Currently, I am freelancing as I continue to write and produce personal projects, including F*ck Your Angel Numbers, Transplants, and Let It Breathe. As an overall film professional, I am most passionate about amplifying and empowering marginalized voices and fellow minority creatives, which is observed in the stories I tell and the crew members I bring on.
Outside of work, I enjoy attending art/music events, eating & traveling with loved ones, watching Formula One, and keeping up with active hobbies that range from beach-side sports to dance to pickleball. I’m also a dual citizen and authorized to work both in the US and the European Union. English is my native language and I am conversational in German.
