About Me
FLASHBACK:
I've been creating stories for as long as I can remember. I hand-drew book covers at 5, filmed silly music videos at 10, and started producing songs at 16. But I've always had a special spot in my heart reserved for writing and for film and television. For whatever reason, I never considered it a genuine possibility as a career.
JUMP CUT TO:
Halfway through my sophomore year at Fordham University, I took an Understanding Television class and I had (what is now a painfully obvious) epiphany: I could combine my passions for writing and television. During my senior year in my Writing the Original Pilot course, I realized this dream had been staring me in the face for years, waiting patiently for me to open my eyes.
PRESENT:
I write. All the time. If I'm not writing, I'm reading the screenplays for my favorite shows or books about how to write better screenplays of my own. And when I'm not doing either of those things, I'm writing in a coffee shop.
Many writers find their own niche in a particular genre, but one thing about me is that I see myself writing Sherlock Holmes-esque mysteries, Call Me By Your Name-like romances and New Girl style comedies.
What sets me apart as a writer, then, is that my primary goal is to showcase the queer, and specifically sapphic, experience in a beautiful range of diverse worlds. While LGBTQ representation is definitely on the rise in the industry, lesbian representation is still lacking.
I aim to fill that gap with an exciting array of stories that have sapphic characters at the forefront, depicting the multiplicity and abundance of our experience.
