Ariana Nicole is the Founder and Producer at Lone Lake Media Productions, a small boutique production company she opened in the past year in Los Angeles, CA. The company focuses on short films, music videos, and narrative storytelling, with recent projects including the short film Reduction, which screened at the Los Angeles International Short Film Festival, and Hugs, currently in post-production.

She is a member of Women in Film Pacific in Los Angeles, participates in two creative collectives there, and continues to support St. Jude's Children's Hospital through donations, time, and events. Originally from Michigan, she values creating spaces for women and LGBT individuals in leadership roles on set.
