# Svenya Braich > Founder & Director, Ticker Tape Productions | Stanford Product Design | Female-Led Narrative Film Location: San Francisco, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/svenya I’m a filmmaker and the founder of Ticker Tape Productions, a female-led production company dedicated to telling stories about messy, complicated, funny women. I earned my B.S. in Product Design from Stanford University, where I studied at the intersection of engineering, systems thinking, and the humanities. My education trained me to bridge analytical rigor with creative intuition — to think structurally while staying deeply attuned to human emotion. Before transitioning into film, I worked as an innovation strategist across corporate, product, and brand strategy. I helped organizations translate ambiguity into clear vision — a skill I now apply to narrative development, directing, and world-building. Having lived in six countries, I bring a global perspective to my work and am particularly drawn to stories about identity, ambition, performance, and belonging. Today, I write, direct, and produce narrative films through Ticker Tape Productions. ## Work Experience ### Founder & Director @ Ticker Tape Productions Jan 2025 – Present | San Francisco, California, United States Develop, write, direct, and produce original narrative film projects across all stages of production.
