My name is CJ, a filmmaker and archivist based in Atlanta.
I’m always interested in making things
You can find me re-watching movies I like, listening to tunes, or driving around.
After graduating with a degree in digital filmmaking, I spent several years living in Brooklyn, where I made my first original short and feature. During that time, I got into digital archiving and turned that passion into curating a music space.

Today, I work with a variety of creative clients across production and post and am always writing and working towards future projects that highlight gradients of human experience, encourage understanding, and illuminate music’s relationship with mental health.
