Greetings from Wausau, Wisconsin! A former proofreader, my life in script terms is firmly in the meaty, challenging second act. A North Central Wisconsin transplant from Iowa, the new isolation inspired me to pen a story that had ruminated inside me for over a decade, which stoked my creative spirit. It’s been an exciting journey! 

I write character-driven stories with heart that portray complicated family dynamics—mostly drama and grounded comedy. My scripts find the emotional story, exploring themes of loss, atonement, estrangement and regret along with hope, forgiveness and new beginnings. All of my scripts have Midwest flavor, but locations are flexible. 

A big believer in the art of collaboration, my hope is that a script of mine will one day connect with a creative in the industry who has the vision and power to bring it to life. Organized and detail-oriented with a flexible schedule, I’m “free to fly” and would welcome the opportunity to connect with others to help make it happen. I love to travel! If you're interested in one of my scripts but it needs a few tweaks to suit your needs, I'm open to that. A script is a collaborative process. Let's talk!   

A team player and always up for an adventure, if anyone needs an extra hand when filming in my general vicinity (or possibly in Eastern Iowa, where I have family), reach out to me. I was the Script Supervisor for a short film shot in Iowa and thoroughly enjoyed the experience of helping another creative with their vision. (We met in person for the first time on the first day of shooting; networking works!) Did I mention I'll work for M&M's?

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…
