Pitching My Heart Out!









Traci Carter (Producer) and I (Director) were selected as 1 of 12 teams (6 documentary and 6 narrative) to represent my narrative feature screenplay, Destiny's Road, at the Women In Film Financing Intensive, sponsored by Women In Film and Sundance Film Institute. We spent two days workshopping our budget and pitch with industry mentors in order to prepare us for a day of pitching with film financiers. We did an amazing job pitching the film. The nerves and adrenaline worked in our favor.  Only time will tell if we secured the green!
