about us

Own your voice, 

Build your path, Direct your future

I’ve spent over a decade repping directors, managing international shoots, and setting up the rooms where creative decisions—and careers—get made. I’ve seen the highs, the burnout, the stuck points, and the quiet wins no one claps for. I built CTRL because I know how hard it is to navigate this industry alone—and how powerful it can be when someone helps you see the bigger picture. This isn’t about fluffy advice or generic pep talks. It’s about clarity, strategy, and a real understanding of the creative life. I’ve helped directors at every stage find their voice, sharpen their positioning, and build careers they’re proud of.

 

I’d love to help you do the same.
