Born into a family of musicians, Hillary grew up with an instinctive relationship to sound — a sensibility that now shapes her work as a DJ as much as it shapes her filmmaking. For over a decade, she has played in bars, restaurants, and private events across NYC, crafting curated sound environments for designers such as The Row and performing at venues including Ace Hotel, The Standard, and others.

Hillary’s sets blend post-punk, darkwave, New Wave, disco, and synth-driven subgenres, weaving a sonic palette that feels stylish, cinematic, and immersive — the same atmospheric language that informs her work on screen and in the studio.
