A multidisciplinary artist with decades of creative leadership across industries, Sallie is known for unabashedly embracing a creative life. 

​

As a trauma-informed, neurodiverse creator, Sallie approaches coaching and creative collaborations with her love for celebrating everyday magic, resilience, and a desire to create more space for playing and exploring. Her unique, neurospicy, detail-oriented passion for storytelling with style has delighted audiences and forged strong partnerships behind and in front of the camera. 

​

As a freelance creative, Sallie has worked for Sundance, Facebook Business, as a stylist for folks like Kamala Harris, Katie Couric, Ashley Biden, and astronaut Kay Hire, and on projects for Netflix, HBO, Smithsonian, Fortune 100 Companies and many, many others.

​

After graduating with a BFA in fine arts and film and spending few years focused on painting and performing as a singer/songwriter, Sallie embarked on a life-changing one-way-ticketed journey across Europe before returning stateside and creating a successful freelance career in the film industry as a member of SAG and IATSE.

​

In 2020, she created Moonlight Detective as a platform to further her own work and the work of likeminded and marginalized creatives. 

​

Sallie's recent film work includes Moon Eyes (2020), a low-light short she wrote, directed, and plays the lead role in, which was a semi-finalist at Rhode Island Film Festival, and Why I Got My Covid-19 Vaccine, a series of shorts she wrote and directed for the CDC. She is the co-creator of Balloon Ballroom, a monthly live comedy variety show featuring diverse clown, skit, and standup performances in LA.

​

Sallie lives in Los Angeles, where she enjoys iced jasmine tea, taking 120 film photos with an old Holga, sewing her own dresses, and is three volumes away from owning a complete set of Nancy Drew books.
