Hi, I’m Amanda

Welcome to my portfolio! Here you'll find work from both of my passions: marketing & filmmaking.

At the heart of all of my work is the idea of storytelling. Whether I'm working on social media & branding or creating a film, my main focus is telling that company or character's story in a compelling way that keeps an audience engaged and wanting to come back for more.
