Courtney Zhì-Xián Loo is a writer-director and entrepreneur.

Loo is a Sundance Screenwriting Fellow, Sundance Asian American Fellow and Almanack Screenwriting Fellow. Her short films include Slick Talk, which premiered at SXSW 2023, and Post Office, which premiered at Slamdance 2021 and was named a Vimeo Staff Pick. Though tonally distinct, both narrative films explore choices and decisions—how sometimes, even with good intentions, we make the wrong choices, and how we often question the decisions we’ve already made. She is currently developing her debut feature film, Bangbang Teahouse, which was selected for Sundance Institute's Feature Film Program and Artist Accelerator Program. In the advertisement space, Loo has collaborated with renowned talent and directed commercials for notable brands such as Honda and Athletic Greens.

In addition to her directing career, Loo is an entrepreneur in the music industry. She co-founded Thrice Cooked—a media company that manages multi-platinum artists Pink Sweat$ & KIRBY.
