An independent filmmaker and photographer based out of North Carolina, Renée has worked in locations around the US as well as abroad in Finland where she directed and filmed Sisareni, her first international collaboration. Inspired by the work of Andrei Tarkovsky and the films of Bergman and Bresson, the content of her work is primarily experimental and explores the connection between human nature and the divine.
Currently, Renée is serving as the monastic intern at Holy Cross Monastery in West Park, New York until August 2021.
She holds a Masters in Theological Studies with a Certificate in Theology and the Arts from Duke Divinity School and a Bachelors of Arts in Cinema and Television from Regent University.
