After graduating college…
Belle made the exciting and wild decision to move back in with their parents.
A year later, Belle is still residing in a suburb of the Chicago-Land area, and proudly commutes in an annoyingly decorated mini-van.

- design coordinating and guiding
- pre/post/on set-production experience
- large and small scale organization
- leadership
