Bio

My name is Tiara Jones, and I am currently a sophomore at SUNY Oswego pursuing a career in film and media production. I am passionate about the creative and technical aspects of filmmaking, especially the work that happens behind the scenes, including production management, editing, cinematography, and post-production. My goal is to build a career creating meaningful visual stories that inspire and connect with people. As a first-generation college student from a single-parent household, earning my degree represents more than a personal achievement; it is an opportunity to create a better future for myself and my family. My mother has worked hard to support my education, and I am committed to making the most of every opportunity I receive. I am determined to graduate with the skills, experience, and knowledge needed to succeed in the entertainment industry while minimizing the financial burden of college. Receiving scholarships allows me to focus on my education, gainhands-onn experience, and continue pursuing my dream of working in film production. I hope to use my education to make a positive impact through storytelling and creative media.
