Hi, I'm Kendall.
I'm an Atlanta-based editor, filmmaker, and rom-com enthusiast.
After graduating from Michigan State University in 2021, I started working as an editor for Ahptic Film & Digital (Lansing, MI), where I worked for a year and a half before moving to Atlanta in pursuit of more film industry experience.
In addition to working on my own projects, my roles on independent shorts and commercial sets include 2nd AC, Script Supervisor, and Production Assistant. Regardless of the job, I commit to working hard and operating with enthusiasm and kindness.
I'm always looking for creatives to connect with, learn from, and convince to read the latest draft of my screenplay.
...Coffee next week?
