I received a BFA in Acting from Nebraska Wesleyan University, has a Certificate in Collaborative Filmmaking from Maine Media Workshops + College, and an MFA in Visual Studies from Minneapolis College of Art and Design. My work has been screened nationally and internationally at festivals like Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival, Florida Film Festival, and Small File Media Festival. I am currently an Instructor at F.I.R.S.T. Institute. I work with moving images to externalize and ruminate on liquid modern experiences including temporal dysphoria, creation under late stage capitalism, and nostalgia through a contemporary lens.
