I was two weeks away from my college graduation, and one of my three part-time jobs had me crafting perfect lattes at a coffee shop in Malibu. As it turned out, a fellow barista was the daughter of Sterling Ray, who was the owner of Atlas Pictures at the time. Atlas was a commercial production company in Santa Monica, and I wasted no time securing an interview with Sterling the following week. Two weeks after graduation, I was welcomed as the new Office Manager of Atlas. After about a year with Atlas, I became a Freelance Production Assistant. My story truly started there.

Success in this industry requires hard work, serendipity, and the hustle inherent to freelancing. I've embraced each project as an opportunity to expand my network and skills, focusing on team development, client partnerships, and workflow optimization that supports creative excellence. Throughout my career, I've recognized opportunities for advancement and embraced new responsibilities confidently. My growth mindset drives me to learn, lead, and evolve continuously. I'm a creative collaborator. I’m a thinker. I’m a doer. I work my ass off. I approach each day with gratitude for a career encouraging constant growth and meaningful contributions.

I reside in Nashville with my husband, bonus kids, and Doodle Maisel. After spending 20 years living and working in Los Angeles, I’m fortunate to work between Nashville and California while continuing to travel and expand my networks both in the US and abroad. I have gained invaluable insights from the production companies, agencies, and brands I've had the privilege to support as a freelancer. I’m eager to leverage this collective knowledge to contribute meaningfully within an in-house creative team or brand, where I can expand my expertise to a growing team. I’m seeking a full-time position, and I would gladly consider relocating for a role that resonates with my career aspirations and supports my ongoing growth.
