“"so who are you?”
With over a decade of experience invested as a chameleon of this industry, I've found my place in nearly every facet of film, including documentary licensing & educational distribution, film location scouting & management, digital & print marketing, film festival operations, the sale of stock footage and — as of late — film premieres & impact campaigns. I pride myself on being real with clients while adding a healthy dose of humor and charisma to drive teams of all kinds.
My primary base is Portland, OR, but my experience spans across the country. I prioritize research and analysis to adapt accordingly and effectively translate the overall creative vision respectfully and efficiently everywhere my projects take me, while also prioritizing the artist's image, self-confidence, and complete experience from start to finish.
A safe, equitable, and inclusive working environment is something I care deeply about in this process, with an emphasis on hands-on workforce development, economic transparency, and mental health support for creative freelancers. I am historically dedicated to empowering the same local communities that embrace and invest in me for my own individuality. To get there, I approach each professional relationship with an attitude of support and constructive encouragement.
My heart is set on helping artists see their own talents and values. When you need a hype-woman — and you will — I'm your gal, there every step of the way to help you keep the full artistic freedom in your hands… Just leave the impact to me.

“WHAT KINDA REPUTATION DO YOU HAVE?”
"Corrine is a vital asset to the film community, especially when it comes to realizing the goals of a project. I came to her in 2019 with a narrative piece that I couldn't seem to visualize beyond what I had already done, and she took all of my ideas, made a map of my goals, and now - four years later - my project, The Letters to Loretta series has reached thousands. She helped me identify the root message of my story to market myself successfully, see the value in my work, and encouraged me to pursue creative outlets I wouldn't have considered. Aside from being a published narrative writer, I am now a screenwriter with my MFA from the David Lynch school of cinematic arts as well as an English professor.”
