LA. Chicago. NYC. A writer for the stage, screen, video games, and radio.
Repped by Citizen Skull.Thank you for visiting my portfolio site! Here you'll find highlights from all my past and present writing projects. No matter the format or genre, I write about characters making genuine connections in surprising ways.If you'd like to connect on social media, click one of the icons above!
Stage plays
I believe good theatre is liminal, worth repeating, and strengthens community. Click on any image to learn more about a project, or check out my New Play Exchange profile for my full catalog of plays.I've been a Tutterow Fellow at Chicago Dramatists, a Downstage Left Resident Playwright at Stage Left Theatre, and part of the The Paper Trail at Broken Nose Theatre.
Screenplays
I believe good screenplays- whether for film or TV- focus on characters we don't want to look away from. Each second of screen time packs a punch and immediately connects with the audience. Check out my Coverfly profile to see my full catalog of screenplays.I won Austin Film Fest in 2022, and am currently developing my first short film.
Video Games
I believe good video games encourage players to be the co-author of their own story, and in the process, help them heal core wounds they didn't realize needed healing.Past positions include being a Narrative Designer for Crazy Maple Studio (Chapters), Narrative Designer for Mattel163, & Lead Narrative Designer for Sunbird Studio
Audio drama
I believe good audio drama is not an exclamation point but a question mark. It should make listeners lean in and wonder what they're going to hear next.I've written for Wondery, Starlight Radio Dreams, Lavender Scare, & Whiskey Radio HourClick on any image to listen for yourself
Teaching
I believe good instructors help their students, young and old, discover what stories they want to tell, and nourish their courage to share those stories far and wide.I have previously taught writing workshops at Writopia Lab, PlayPenn, and Chicago Dramatists. I also independently taught Your Worst Script, my most popular workshop to date.Currently (circa August 2024), I am not teaching any writing workshops. However, I always offer sliding-scale private sessions for adults and kids (including creative writing, essay writing, and homework help). I also provide script coverage and script doctoring services.Shoot me an email at [email protected] to discuss further
