ABOUT ME

I’m Jeanette, a Los Angeles–based production leader originally from Northern California, working across film, television, sports content, branded campaigns, photography, and digital-first media. My background spans line producing, production management, and production finance and operations, supporting projects from early development through delivery.

I’m known for bringing a calm, organized, and solutions-focused approach to complex productions—translating creative ideas into clear schedules, budgets, and plans that actually work in the real world. My experience spans a wide range of formats, including film, reality and docuseries, sports programming, commercials, experiential and brand partnership campaigns, live-to-tape and live-to-broadcast productions, live events, podcasts, and photoshoots. I’ve worked across both studio and field environments, as well as fast-turn, digital and platform-driven content, including AR-based storytelling and audio projects.

Most recently, I worked with Uncle Toad’s Media Group on the Natural Selection Tour, supporting live sports broadcasts for snowboarding, ski, and mountain biking competitions in partnership with Red Bull, streaming on Red Bull TV and digital platforms. It was fast-paced, live-to-air work with a lot of moving pieces—exactly the kind of environment I thrive in.

Before that, I was with DLP Media Group in a production finance and operations role, supporting Amazon Prime Video programming and partner content tied to Thursday Night Football.

Over the years, I’ve worked with production companies, networks, agencies, and in-house teams, managing everything from lean builds to multimillion-dollar productions while leading cross-functional crews through real-world constraints. I tend to sit right at the intersection of creative, logistics, and finance—making sure things stay on track, on budget, and moving forward.

I still take on select freelance and contract work, but I’m ultimately looking for a long-term, in-house role as a Director or Head of Production, where I can bring structure, support, and steady leadership to a team and operation across multiple projects.

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me hiking around Southern California (podcast in my ears), checking out local breweries, or out shooting still photography.
