Morgan is a 2024 graduate of Montclair State University with a BFA in Filmmaking. As a filmmaker and cinematographer, she specializes in horror and thriller narratives that explore trauma, addiction, mental health, and generational cycles, often blurring the line between the personal and the terrifying. She is also passionate about documentary filmmaking, focusing on social issues and personal exposés that amplify underrepresented voices. Morgan works freelance as a First and Second Assistant Camera on independent productions, driven by a love for visual storytelling and collaboration. Outside of film, she is a photographer capturing food styling, portraits, and natural landscapes—always drawn to imagery that feels honest, cinematic, and emotionally resonant.
