Talia is a Director, Writer, and Producer for film, theater, and virtual reality. She uses speculative storytelling and non-naturalistic narrative techniques, from dance to science-fiction, to get closer to human truths.
Her short film Make Me a Pizza will premiere at the 2024 SXSW Film & TV Festival, and her short film Next Time took home an Audience Award at the Academy Award-Qualifying Nashville Film Festival and also screened at HollyShorts Film Festival. Her dance films have been featured across international platforms and festivals including Short of the Week, NOWNESS, Dance Magazine, Source Creative, Filmatique Talents, The Cut Magazine, and PÖFF Shorts, and she has served as a jury member for the National Film Festival For Talented Youth and the L.A. Dance Film Festival.
In her work for corporate clients such as Uber ATG and NanoString Technologies she ensures that story is always the beating heart of the project.
After obtaining her degree in Directing and Screenwriting at Carnegie Mellon University, Talia drove from her hometown of Washington, D.C. to Los Angeles, where she now resides.
