The Founder

A U.S. Marine Corps veteran with over a decade of stage and production management experience, alongside professional expertise in financial systems management, auditing, and process automation. She oversees overall creative vision, corporate governance, process optimization, and strategic direction across Silver Thread Media’s film slates and digital infrastructure.

Rochelle founded Silver Thread Media, LLC in Birmingham, Alabama, with fellow Marine Corps veteran Kwan’Tisha Farmer. The company pairs character-driven filmmaking with the systems discipline of her enterprise background — the same discipline behind Slate & Ledger Pro Studio, the production software Silver Thread Media built to run its own productions.

Scale — Budgets & Organizations

Financial data consolidated and assessed for a $300M budget; official accounting records managed for a $100M annual budget; a $26M annual operating budget accounted for as a U.S. Marine Corps Financial Management Resource Analyst.

Enterprise systems work inside the U.S. Department of Defense (~$850B annual funding) and the nation’s largest construction aggregates producer (~$7–8B annual revenue, public filings); multi-billion-dollar accounts managed under subcontract to a global professional services firm as Senior Consultant II.

Systems & Data

Millions of financial records migrated from legacy DoD systems — Legacy, SABRS, and STARS — into Navy ERP, preserving accounting continuity across the transition.

6,000+ fiscal transactions tracked, validated, and reconciled (O&M, MC).

Results

Worker onboarding standardized: clearance time cut from 3 months to 6 weeks (−50%) — workers cleared and productive sooner.

Financial reporting accuracy +50%; record accuracy +35% through discrepancy analysis.

Month-end close −20%, administrative costs −15%, billing errors −30%, collection period −20%, 95% of receivables recovered within 90 days; external audits with no significant findings.
