Adriana Spencer, “Adi,” producer
Originally from sunny California, Adriana Spencer traded the beach for the concrete jungle to attend NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts (BFA, Drama).
Producing ROP's inaugural film, ROSALIE, has been meaningful for Adi both personally and politically, and originating the character of Nadine, a true honor.
Along with her work at Ruffled Owl, Adriana has collaborated on indie films as an actor, producer, casting director, and story creator. She’s made several shorts with the production company Filmelodic, which sets original stories to classical music and screens them with live orchestras.
