  Resume

Winner of 2007 - 168 Hour Film Festival "Best Comedy" award

and the "Audience award" for the short film "BAG".

Kathy is the owner and managing member of Excellent Journey Pictures, LLC, and is the business brain of the company. As the Producer on Warrior’s Eve, she has carried the vision of the film from its inception and will follow it through to its completion.

Kathy’s career in the entertainment industry began in 1998. Prior to that time, she was utilizing her high-level analytical skills as a senior case manager for a major health insurer where quick interpretation of information and prompt problem solving was the norm.  Kathy’s baccalaureate degree in the sciences has been the solid foundation that is needed for the management of a production company. She has utilized principles of financial management, psychology, growth and development, leadership, and stress management learned during her undergraduate years to assist her in turning Excellent Journey Pictures into an up and coming Production Company, ready to become a leader in the entertainment industry. 

Kathy became enthralled with the entertainment industry when her partner, James, asked her to assist him in making an industrial video for his employer. She began her entertainment career at that time as a producer’s assistant on a few industrial videos and quickly transitioned into the theatrical world.  Kathy has held many positions on set including camera operator, camera assist, teleprompter operator, production assistant, Craft Services, grip, cord wrangler, and much more. After spending multiple hours on sets, Kathy became an associate producer on a music video.  Finding that she has a gift for detail, she quickly found herself taking on more and more producing duties.

    After serving as an associate producer for multiple music and promotional videos, Kathy then became an associate producer on a religious cable television program where she had occasion to take on the producing duties for quite a few of the episodes. She transitioned into film producing, beginning in that arena with a short film competition in January of 2004.  Since that time, she has produced four other short film projects, one of which was a finalist in a film festival, and a promotional video.  Kathy’s crowning achievement to date is as Producer of the short film, “Bag” which was submitted in 2007 to the 168 Hour Film Festival.  She received an award from Judge Ralph Winter, Producer of the X-Men films and The Fantastic Four, for Best Comedy and also received the Audience Choice award.
