about Em

Iā€™m a nonbinary filmmaker with a passion for non-fiction storytelling centering queer and disabled voices.

Currently, I am based in Austin, Texas. I primarily direct non-fiction multimedia films that explore community oriented stories. My films have screened at festivals including Oak Cliff Film Festival, and Vancouver Queer Film Festival. Most recently, I received the 2023 Austin Film Society Short Film Grant for my upcoming documentary short EARTH TO KB.

I hold an MFA in Film and Media Production from The University of Texas at Austin, and a BFA in Animation from Massachusetts College of Art and Design.

Outside of directing, I have worked as a freelance editor and production designer. I deeply enjoy collaborative projects and creating film community. In my free time, I enjoy 35mm film photography and cooking for my friends.
