Ever since I was young, I have been fascinated by how filmmakers can create a story and share it with the world. That fascination inspired me to create my own films, which blossomed my creative side and made me want to express my voice through film. I gained a new sense of confidence for my work and I realized that I can help make a difference in our world today; so I joined Girls IN Focus to help grow the program and bring change to the film industry. I look forward to seeing the future filmmakers form their voices at Girls IN Focus.
