Filmmaker, writer, and unlicensed (for now...) psychologist. I'm interested by how our brains construct our perceptions and create a sense of happiness and well-being. I hope to work towards talking about mental illness, the stigma surrounding it, and the recovery involved in it, whether that'd be in the form of a film, a novel, or research in clinical psychology.

 

This past August, I graduated with a degree in Film & Media Studies and Clinical Psychology from Tufts University, where I spent a majority of my time making weird videos and sending my writing teachers too many drafts of my stories.

 

Things I like: visiting my family in Ukraine, sundresses, my hometown of Santa Barbara, CA, cats, and the color forest green.

 

CELEBRATE SELF-LOVE.
