She currently works as a Junior Editor at Quill and Flame Publishing House and has started her own production company, Hip Librarian Productions, to make book-related films and commercials. Grayson is proud to have worked on over forty films this past year and has recently directed a historical drama short film, Elmstone, with an all-female identifying cast and crew!
