Bri is a treasure! She made the dreadful slog of running a Kickstarter campaign into as lovely an experience as is possible! She has deep expertise in crowd funding and fabulous interpersonal skills, gently guiding cranky filmmakers (me) to do the work required to run a successful campaign. She is smart, organized, an excellent communicator, a skilled graphic designer, and an all around team player. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
-Rebecca Richman Cohen, Producer & Director of WEED & WINE
Bri was our Crowdfunding Producer for the short film Shroomery. Not only was she very knowledgeable and communicative about the process, she also created organized to-do lists that simplified the process for us as we went through crowdfunding and pre-production simultaneously. Would highly recommend her valuable expertise for anyone looking to crowdfund for their next project.
