Description
A great film idea is not enough. You also need to communicate its creative vision, emotional power, audience, and viability in a way that makes people want to get involved. In this five-session package, we’ll transform your film idea or existing materials into a clear, compelling pitch deck designed to capture attention and inspire confidence. We’ll develop the project’s core positioning, strengthen its story, determine what belongs in the deck, and refine the language and visual direction of each section. Drawing from my experience developing, financing, producing, marketing, and distributing independent films, I’ll help you balance creative ambition with the practical information producers, funders, investors, collaborators, and fellowship committees need to see. By the end of the package, you’ll have a polished pitch deck, sharper language for discussing your project, and a clearer strategy for putting the materials in front of the right people. This package is designed for documentary and narrative filmmakers who: • Have a film idea but are struggling to articulate its full potential • Have an existing deck that feels unclear, generic, or visually inconsistent • Are preparing to approach producers, investors, grantmakers, labs, or collaborators • Need to clarify their story, characters, themes, audience, or creative approach • Want honest industry feedback before sending their materials into the world You do not need to have a finished screenplay, trailer, or production team. We can begin with an idea, treatment, early draft, or existing pitch deck.

Award-Winning Filmmaker | Projects, Pitches & Sustainable Careers
I’m an award-winning filmmaker, creative producer, and marketing strategist with experience across development, production, directing, writing, post-production, marketing, and distribution. I directed and produced the feature documentary "Hoop Like This," guiding it from an independent idea through fundraising, production, post, festival strategy, audience development, and award-winning screenings across the country. My broader experience includes work with A24, Condé Nast Entertainment, Roy Kapur Films, Verizon Media, and Patreon, as well as producing and directing content for GQ, Vanity Fair, WIRED, Teen Vogue, and Architectural Digest. I’ve also developed high-volume digital campaigns and performance-driven creative for startups and consumer brands, giving me a valuable perspective at the intersection of storytelling, audience strategy, and business. I’ve been selected for the Women in Film Creative Documentary Producing Fellowship, Netflix’s Documentary Archival Researcher Training program, and The Salon Mentorship Program. As a coach, I can help filmmakers strengthen their concepts, treatments, pitch decks, budgets, fundraising strategies, production plans, festival and marketing campaigns, personal brands, and career materials. I understand how to make a project creatively compelling, strategically position it, and connect it with the right audience. I’m especially passionate about helping emerging filmmakers turn ambitious ideas into clear, achievable plans while using their creative skills to build sustainable careers in an ever-changing industry.
