Before shifting focus to audio, she worked as a freelance TV/Film production coordinator on multi-million dollar projects for Netflix, Amazon, Comedy Central, Focus Features, and various independent studios.

Production Manager
FRED CARLOS
Fred “From Honolulu” Carlos is the AUPM for Wave Runner Studios. A veteran of film and television, his ear for fictional and editorial media was honed by Hawai’i’s mixtape of oral traditions like oli (chant), mele (song), and the contemporary tracks of organized complaint and commiseration in the post plantation generation’s labor unions. You can hear him during baseball season in the upper decks of Citi Field whining about the Mets. Off-season, you may run into him meandering the 5 boroughs still whining about the Mets.
