Full Bio

Let’s turn your vision and message into something unforgettable.

I got into the video and film industry to tell stories. No matter the medium, we all have a story to tell and we have an identity. When you have A McKenna Production, you have a producer with a team dedicated to bringing powerful visuals and stories to life. From fast-paced commercials to cinematic promos, feature films, and long-form content, I approach every project with the same mindset: create work that connects, captivates, and delivers real impact.

Whether you’re building a brand, promoting a new release, or developing a passion project, I handle every step of production with precision and creativity from concept to final cut and delivery. I work collaboratively, adapting to the needs of each project and client, no matter the size or scope.
