Ever since I was four years old, when I forced my parents to watch and act out "The Wizard of Oz" with me nightly, I have been captivated by the power of stories to transform the mundane into the magical. After attending NYU's MFA film program, I now write stories about wounded characters learning to forgive themselves and heal. My screenplay TIME FLIES won bronze in the 2024 PAGE Awards, my screenplay HIT ME HARDER was featured on the 2020 GLAAD List, my web series ROOT FOR THE VILLAIN was an official selection at the 2018 Austin Film Festival, and my first feature film as a writer/director, UPON WAKING, was distributed by Buffalo 8 in 2025.
