I love when comedy, culture, and storytelling intersect, though my sweet spot is good ol' dramedy salted with some thrill and adventure. Great dialogue moves me, as do characters where our heroes and heroins learn that they cannot escape their quirks, despite their efforts, but their uniqueness makes them bold and wonderfully powerful and odd.
I am fortunate to have been raised in many different countries, and moving around was my training ground for understanding how different yet similar we all are; my experiences deeply influence my work.
Although I am originally from the East Coast, my passion for stories led me to Southern California, and I have since made this my home away from home.
I have just finished my first children's book, which is out to market with high hopes. Now, on to the next project!
