Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a journalist, not reliably sourced as passing our notability criteria for journalists. Right across the board, this is referenced entirely to sources that are not proper support for notability: directories of her own work on the self-published websites of her own employers, 13 pieces of her own bylined writing about other topics, four more pieces of writing bylined by one of her business partners, Facebook posts, an IMDb page, an online store, a circular citation to another Wikipedia article, content on the self-published websites of directly affiliated organizations or companies, and glancing namechecks of her existence in sources that aren't about her in any non-trivial sense. As always, however, notability is not a question of verifying the extent to which she's been the author of media coverage of other things, it's a question of verifying the extent to which she's been the subject of media coverage written by other people — but out of 35 footnotes here, not even one represents third party coverage about her in a reliable media outlet independent of her, and nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to be referenced much, much better than this.

 * Delete The huffington bio says 'writer and filmmaker'. None of the sources demonstrate that she qualifies WP:CREATIVE since none of her written or visual work has been a part of multiple periodicals or articles. Simply creating stuffing and putting it out is not sufficient. The work needs to be discussed in reliable independent sources. Also, her huffington write ups end with Govindini Murty’s current film project is the WWII sci-fi short film UFO Diary, available now on Vimeo. Visit UFO Diary on Facebook and join the film’s almost 10,000 fans.) which indicates it is not a journalistic effort but a promotional effort to write this piece and seek attention through it.
