is an Award-winning Writer, Director and Filmmaker hailing from sunny Southern California. Born and raised in SoCal, with parents from the Midwest, Jennifer's love for theater and the magic of performing on stage ignited when she just five-years-old, but her discovery of filmmaking was like turning on a light bulb.
Her passion for the craft is evident in her Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Screenwriting earned in May 2023 from California State University, Fullerton. Jennifer is a dedicated storyteller, unearthing narratives that captivate, challenge, and provoke thoughtful reflection. She is also armed with her Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Cinema and Television Arts, with a specialization in Directing and Producing.
An indomitable spirit, Jennifer has fostered a lifelong adoration for mystery and teen thrillers, enthralled with "Goosebumps" novels and immersing herself in the enigmatic realms of classics like "The Twilight Zone". She draws inspiration from renowned auteurs and directors such as Alfred Hitchcock, Sofia Coppola, M. Knight Shyamalan, John Krasinski, Steven Spielberg, and Ron Howard, whose visionary works sculpted her creative path.
Jennifer takes pride in crafting films that not only stimulate the intellect but also forge emotional connections with audiences. She consistently champions the female perspective in her collaborations, fostering a network with fellow talented female filmmakers.
In her short film, “The Dinner Party”, she celebrated the empowerment of women with a remarkable 90% representation of female cast and crew members. She did this once again in her most recent short film, "Cemetery Games", with three wonderful, talented teen girls leading the cast.
Currently, Jennifer stays tirelessly engaged in a variety of creative ventures. Apart from skillfully bringing her own written works to life, she lends her expertise as a Writer, Producer and Casting professional to independent filmmakers in Los Angeles and Orange Counties. Jennifer epitomizes an artist completely immersed in her craft while fostering connections that bring joy and inspiration to her life.
Nestled in the heart of the OC, she shares her heart and home with two adorable kittens, Hank and Henri. She's a lover of coffee, music, and cherished moments spent with family and friends.
