## About

I bring a practical understanding of film audiences, platforms, and the changing distribution landscape. My approach combines strategic thinking with a close reading of each project's voice, goals, and resources, so filmmakers receive clear guidance rather than generic industry advice.
Because I focus on the path between finished film and engaged audience, I can help shape a distribution plan that fits the work. I assess opportunities, clarify priorities, and map realistic next steps across festivals, digital platforms, theatrical options, and other channels, always keeping audience connection and sustainable revenue in view.

Plan Your Film's Release

Book a distribution strategy session to clarify your audience, platform options, release path, and next practical steps.

A focused strategy session to identify where your film can connect most meaningfully.
A More Personal Way to Find Your Audience
We begin with the film itself, considering its genre, themes, format, stage of completion, and intended viewers. I then translate those qualities into a practical view of potential audiences and distribution channels, from festivals and theatrical opportunities to digital platforms and direct outreach.
You leave with clearer priorities and a grounded sense of what to explore next. The conversation is designed to make a complex landscape easier to navigate, while keeping the film's identity and your long-term goals at the center.
