About

I am Haley Odum, an artist who uses her experience and perspective to fuel every project she has the opportunity to create and collaborate on. First receiving my Associates Degree in Film at Long Beach City College to currently attending New York University to receive my Bachelors in Film and Television with a minor in Business for Entertainment, Media, and Technology, I understand what it takes to host tenacity.

I do not come from wealth; I am a biracial, queer artist, so, I already have the odds stacked against me from the beginning. However, I am hardworking, resourceful, and meticulous which has gotten me to where I am today. My life experience has also taught me how crucial it is to remain positive and produce good energy; I work well with others because of my ability to feel and remain in good spirits. I am a multi-tasker, a juggler, an individual who knows how to work in any team.

I am a skilled filmmaker and producer with many resources at my fingertips. I am developing my own production company, in which I will use my understanding of both coasts’ industry to my advantage. I am looking for a position to allow me the flexibility to m maintain my personal career goals while challenging me to assist others in reaching theirs.

My unique corroboration of skills makes me an excellent candidate for any personal assistance to producing any project to managing marketing and social media accounts. To better assess whether I’d be a good fit for you and your current needs, please reference my deck and resume. I hope to hear from you all soon, lead with love.
