Available to hire
I’m a Creative Executive and Writer with 15+ years of experience in narrative strategy, global production, and audience analytics. I’ve led IP development from concept to greenlight at Illumination and Aniventure, and I’m skilled at scaling content for high-volume digital platforms (PocketFM, VitalTek) by aligning creative vision with data-driven commercial goals. Most recently, I wrote Hitpig (2024), which can be seen on Peacock, as well as Riverdance: The Animated Adventure (2021) and served as a consultant and punch-up writer for the upcoming feature film, Animal Farm (2026).
