PIXAR ANIMATION STUDIOS | Senior Production Coordinator | 2021 - Present
Following the closure of Blue Sky Studios, I joined the Production Management team at Pixar Animation Studios. With the Covid-19 pandemic ongoing, my first few months at Pixar were spent working remotely in NY, until later that year when I embarked on the cross-country move to CA. I began as a Production Coordinator, and in 2025, was promoted to Senior Production Coordinator. I also Co-Production Managed the 2024 Teaser Trailer for the film ELIO.
BLUE SKY STUDIOS | Production Coordinator / Assistant | 2018 - 2021
After graduating from NYU, I immediately joined the Production Management team at Blue Sky Studios as a Production Assistant. The studio closed in 2021, but it was a privilege to be a part of such an inspiring community and to everyday be surrounded by incredible people determined to answer technical challenges with creative solutions and to produce spectacular art.
FUSION FILM FESTIVAL | New York, NY | 2014 - 2018
During all four years at NYU, I was a part of the Fusion Film Festival, a team dedicated to celebrating female-identifying artists in film, TV, and new media. We hosted year-round events culminating in a 3-day festival with events like panels, screenings, and pitch sessions. I held multiple positions as part of the festival, from Editorial staff writer to Editorial Co-Head, Associate Director, Festival Production Manager, Programming Co-Head, Co-Director, and a moderator for panels.
