Excited to lead the press campaign for “1001 Frames,” the feature directorial debut from Iranian-American filmmaker Mehrnoush Alia ahead of its New York premiere at Brooklyn Film Festival on May 31. Thank you to Garineh Nazarian for connecting me with Merhnoush on this project. Following its world premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival and awards at the Thessaloniki International Film Festival last year, the film continues an impressive run. “1001 Frames” is a genre-blurring thriller that turns an audition into a nightmare of power, control and objectification. Proud to be part of bringing this sharp, fearless project to NYC audiences. Read more about "1001 Frames" at

Thrilled to be back working as publicist for the brilliant filmmaker and cinematographer Martina Radwan, representing her as director of "One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5," streaming Jan. 12 on Netflix - after first collaborating on the world premiere of her feature documentary debut Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow at DOC NYCYC 2023. Hand-picked by Matt and Ross Duffer, Martina was given unprecedented access to the final season of Stranger Things. Embedded on set in Atlanta for a year and inside the writers’ room in LA, she crafted a standalone documentary that goes far beyond a traditional behind-the-scenes piece—an intimate, immersive portrait of the creative process, collaboration, and emotional weight of closing out one of the most influential series of our time. Martina brings a storyteller’s eye shaped by deep experience across fiction and nonfiction. In 2024, she won an Emmy for her work as one of the cinematographers of "Girls State." Her cinematography credits also include "The Only Girl in the Orchestra" (2025 Oscar winner) and "Saving Face" (Academy Award winner, and Emmy-nominated for cinematography).

Thank you Asha Dahya and GirlTalkHQ for your great feature and interview with Bonnie Rose! “With on-screen representation being shown to have a vital impact on audiences and our perception of the world, we feel strongly about amplifying the women who have defied the status quo, and whose careers are proving a demand for more diversity. If there is an actress who has proved that the film industry is not just a space for men to succeed beyond their 20s or 30s, it is Bonnie Rose”
