ABOUT: I have a passion for the arts, particularly Film, TV and Media, and have 12 years of experience working in pre-production, production and post production for independent films, documentaries, commercials broadcast and multi-cam live stream productions. My first foray in the industry began in 2010 at a film studio in the Philippines, first as a Production Intern, then as an Intern Manager and Executive Assistant working on both feature films and developing unscripted television series. After leaving the Philippines and with the birth of my child, I began my own company in 2013. In the 8+ years of operating my business, Kilam Media, I've had the opportunity to work with numerous businesses, nonprofits and artists, producing original content: photography, graphic design, video and audio that is accessible for television, web and print. I gained valuable experience as a small business owner that is transferrable in all scenarios and projects I'm part of, and has been integral to the way I build relationships with partners and clients. Because of my background, I've been fortunate to have the opportunity to mentor young people and women-of-colour in Entrepreneurship, Digital Media, Marketing & Communications through Invest Ottawa, SPCO and CWCLN. Whether professionally or personally, I believe in collaboration and prioritize working with and sharing opportunities with women who are part of Indigenous, Black or PoC, LGBTQ2S+ communities. My values of being community focused, anti-oppressive, socially just and eco-conscious lead the direction of my life path and my work. I currently live in Los Angeles continuing to operate Kilam Media, and work on various productions. I love being part of this industry, in all aspects, especially when I can work on projects that are meaningful and impactful.
