I’m a Writer/Director with a strong foundation in both creative development and operational leadership. My work directorial work includes psychological horror feature film (“Wait ’Til Dawn”), several narrative shorts, and a TV pilot presentation. My original scripted series, a dark comedy thriller, is currently being shopped after placing as a finalist in the Sundance Episodic Lab. I’m drawn to character-driven stories, emotional arcs, and grounded genre worlds that explore human complexity. Alongside my creative work, I've spent eight years with Equinox — including two years as a Group Fitness Manager at one of the highest-performing clubs in Manhattan. I led a team of 60+ instructors, built programming for 124 weekly classes, handled scheduling, payroll, and studio operations, and taught 15–20 high-intensity classes a week myself. That experience shaped my approach to creative collaboration: clear communication, grounded leadership, adaptability under pressure, and the ability to guide talent while keeping a room focused, supported, and engaged. I thrive in environments where story, structure, and people intersect. I’m currently seeking opportunities in creative development, writer’s rooms, and production support roles where I can contribute both creatively and operationally, with a long-term trajectory toward producing and showrunning.
