I am a professional Intimacy Coordinator (IC) based in Atlanta, Georgia, with availability in New York City & nationwide.

Why Work With Me
I bring specialized expertise and a collaborative spirit to every project. Here's what makes me the right IC for your production:
Sustainable Choreography for Series Work. I excel at creating nuanced, evolving intimate moments. Your characters' intimacy will feel authentic and fresh across multiple episodes and seasons...never repetitive, always intentional.
Safety is Non-Negotiable. Every project includes comprehensive prep for each scene: script breakdown, director, actor, and department head conversations, nudity rider development, and detailed scene mapping. I don't cut corners because your cast and production deserves nothing less than full support.
Accessible Expertise & Inclusive Storytelling: I'm committed to making professional intimacy coordination available to projects at all budget levels. Through clear communication and scalable services, I work with emerging creators and independent productions to ensure safe, inclusive sets are the standard, not a luxury. I'm especially passionate about elevating underrepresented voices and supporting stories by, for, and about marginalized individuals and communities.
