She received her Bachelors of Fine Arts in Film and Television Production and Critical Studies in 2016 from UC, Santa Cruz. There, she wrote her dissertation “Madame Butterflies and Dragon Ladies: Asian American... Female Representation” and, in complement, directed her thesis short film, Hard-Boiled Mask and the Art of Blossoming (2016). Her short film was selected and screened at Vessel Gallery in downtown Oakland, CA in “Excuse Me, Can I See Your ID?” an art and media exhibit featuring Asian American artists and filmmakers who explore ideas of Asian American identity and belonging. After graduating in 2016, she started her graduate program at USC’s School of Cinematic Arts for Film and Television Production where she has worked on various projects, including producing a multi-camera sitcom, “The Jackson Show,” and writing/directing her thesis film, “Shades of Jade.” Rose aspires to utilize her personal experiences and informed critical studies background to create progressive characters and stories that challenge normative and stereotypical representations. She actively creates strong female leads to showcase female perspectives and open dialogue for the underrepresented and overlooked, especially for women of color. She makes conscious efforts to hire and work with a diverse crew of all racial, cultural, and sexual backgrounds. She also advocates for generating awareness for mental illness, domestic and sexual abuse, and environmental issues.
