I am an award-winning playright, author and screenwriter. My workplace dramedy “Yellow Bird” won ‘Best Feature’ in the 2023 Santa Monica Film Festival and ‘Best Comedy’ in the LA Film Festival’s Independent Film Showcase. The movie streams on AppleTV, Amazon Prime and Tubi, and is now available on DVD.
My movie "Christmas at the Roanoke Ranch" (co-written with Shannon K. Dunn) will air this July part of 'Christmas In July's' new releases, have two other holiday scripts in pre-production, and a thriller that is being packaged by Buffalo 8 Productions.
Recently, my female-led comedy horror script ‘Slay Belles” and my contained horror script "Twisted Doll" have placed in several writing competitons.
I'm currently shopping the original series, "Pretty Girls Aren't Funny," which I was hired to adapt from Rhonda Shear's book 'Up All Night,' the contained thriller/horror script "Knock," co-written with Shannon K. Dunn, along with 2 Shark Scripts, also written with Shannon.
