I am award-winning screenwriter/producer. I was mentored by Meg LeFauve, while pursuing an MFA at UCLA's Department of Film and TV. Meg recently wrote Inside Out for Pixar. The picture has grossed over one billion worldwide. She too pivoted from producing into screenwriting and was a huge fan of my design work. Having a producing background helps a lot with market positioning and understanding how to connect with an audience. We were recently hired to write a screenplay for Dominique Seguin (RACE) and Stefano Dammicco (Founder of Eagle Pictures, Italy - released TOMB RAIDER and MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA). A BRIEF CASE OF TIME, a feature film I designed and am producing, has interest from a major specialty label and has received multi-million dollar pre-sale offers; ANDREA, a screenplay I co-wrote, was a finalist at the Sundance Screenwriters' Lab. CBC recently purchased a documentary I designed. Prior to enrolling at UCLA, I produced the film LOVE THE HARD WAY starring Adrien Brody. The film screened at Sundance, Berlin and won the Silver Leopard at The Locarno Film Festival
