Creative, competent and charming. Windy confronts any production challenge head-on, and determines a way to overcome it with panache - resulting in high quality media, grateful crews and happy clients. Everyone should have the pleasure of working with Windy, and I would be very happy to do so again.

SERVICES

Throughout my career, I’ve earned a few nicknames: a woman of many hats, a jane of all trades, a master of integration, a maven, and a MVP.

I call myself a social impact content creator, who works at the intersection of entertainment, education, and equity. 

Today you can typically find me wearing one or more of these hats: Producer, Director, Coach, and Consent-Forward Artist.
