I’m an award-winning screenwriter and filmmaker with a track record in developing pilots, features, and pitch decks for production companies across the U.S. and Europe. My work has placed in the Top 15% of the Nicholl Fellowship, earned recognition from the Sundance Screenwriters Lab, and I’ve been a quarterfinalist in the American Zoetrope and Austin Film Festival screenplay contests, along with winning the Golden Reel Award at Shockfest. I currently write for a major NBA-themed YouTube channel with 214K+ subscribers and I also consult on scripts, providing deep story analysis and actionable notes to elevate projects. Earlier in my career I cut my teeth at Nickelodeon Studios as a segment producer and associate producer—booking talent, writing scripts, and managing fast-paced production schedules. This experience informs my ability to write for production, collaborate under pressure, and contribute across development, production, and mentorship roles.
