About

Engaging storytelling touches every aspect of our lives. From diving deep into your favorite video game to making purchasing decisions based on visual storytelling within multi-media advertising campaigns,

captivating characters and immersive worldbuilding generates loyal fanbases. As a highly experienced creative writer with over 15 years of experience in the entertainment and media industry, I know how to capture and keep an audience.

Moving forward, I am transitioning to roles in the gaming industry as well as copywriting roles that understand the value of storytelling.

Experience

As an award-winning writer, I successfully lead and contributed to creative teams within extremely fast-

paced environments, covering every aspect of story development from concept to post-production. I easily collaborated with other teams, from the special effects/VFX departments to the on-set directors and actors. Leaders, directors, and individual contributors looked to me as the consistent voice for the shows, making sure that we stayed true to the characters, story lines, and fantastical worlds that we developed.

I’ve been fortunate to dive into creative writing and storytelling agnostic of the medium and across multiple genres. From horror to romance and sci-fi to Westerns, I easily grasp the concepts that appeal to each divergent audience. With experience ranging from Disney Branded TV and ABC Family to decidedly adult content for NBC, I understand the key factors with ratings while still pushing the envelope to maintain an edgy appeal.
