I currently act as FITE Film's producer. This means I do a lot of research, budgeting, and logistics planning in terms of how and when sequences within the film will be shot.
I also act as FITE Film's Director of Social Media, Marketing, and Events. This means I do a lot of art and design work, and a lot of tweeting, Instagramming, content creating,
and social media outreach.

Not only is FITE Film a selected commitment project at Clinton Global Initiative University (2016), but it has also garnered a lot of success with Big Ideas, a UC Berkeley grant competition. FITE placed 1st in its category (Arts and Social Change) and later went on to place 1st again on Big Ideas Pitch Day. After being pitched live in front of a panel of judges, FITE was granted winnings in total of $13,000 for the production of the film, and $35,000+ in total, considering Kickstarter earnings as well.

Mass Incarceration in the US is not a mere prison problem, but it is also a societal issue. To the right, I put together some numbers to show you how and why.
