Carolyn Schilling

I was raised in Traverse City, Michigan. It's the cherry capital of the world. Dance, theater, and writing inspired me on as I made my way out of that small city and into the halls of the University of Michigan. There I received a B.A. in English Literature with a minor in Screenwriting, winning the 2004 Hopwood award for Best Screenplay. Film took me to Hollywood where I worked as an agent assistant at United Talent Agency in Beverly Hills. I also was the art department assistant during pre-production on the Warner Bros. film, Blood Diamond. Since then I've tried my hat at fashion styling, floral design, and teaching. I recently returned to the United States from teaching English in Bandung, Indonesia for eight months. It was a life changing experience! I currently live in Austin, Texas where I continue to study creative endeavors.
