Katie Moran is a Director Assistant for Partizan Entertainment, Los Angeles. She received her BFA at the University of Michigan in 2015. She was awarded the thesis award for a photography project and has been in the film industry for the past five years, working on documentaries, commercials, tv shows, and feature films. She most recently worked for the Academy Award winning film director Michel Gondry. Katie feels most at peace in front of a blank canvas ready to paint up a storm, or in Northern Michigan on the lake. Her dad was diagnosed with CTE about 5 years ago. A form of dementia that is caused by the many concussions he’s had in his life, Katie ultimately decided to move back to Michigan this past year to be closer to him. She knows first hand all the care that someone with dementia needs and would love to help support others that are in similar situations.
