Greetings from Wausau, Wisconsin! Raised in Iowa, I continue to embrace Midwest sensibilities. I write grounded, character-driven stories with heart—mostly drama and comedy with a dash of Midwest flavor. (Locations are flexible.) My scripts find the emotional story, exploring themes of loss, atonement, estrangement and regret along with love, hope, forgiveness and new beginnings.

An upbeat, collaborative spirit, I cowrote a Christmas script with David Congalton (screenwriter of AUTHORS ANONYMOUS, 2014) after connecting on this platform. We communicated entirely via email. Maybe someday we’ll actually meet!

I find fulfillment in being part of an artistic team. I was the Script Supervisor for a short film. Organized and detail-oriented with a flexible schedule, I’m “free to fly” and welcome the opportunity to connect with other creatives. I love to travel and am always up for an adventure!

I look forward to connecting with other Script Revolution members and am very open to feedback/constructive criticism pertaining to my scripts. In fact, I welcome it since I'm regularly polishing them as inspiration strikes. A Communication Studies graduate of The University of Iowa, I’ve been described as a person who can talk to anyone. Really! Don’t be shy…
