My passion is for creative writing and true stories. I am currently pitching my second screenplay called Killing Detroit the story is set in the 1970s, it’s a 35-year story that ends tragically in numerous murders. The story marks the beginning of America’s black power movement and the government's reaction. I’m currently working on my second screenplay called The Corporate Klan. The screenplay is another true story of corporate racism in America’s largest corporations. My other passions are photography, cycling, and marketing. From my previous career, I have extensive marketing experience on large projects. Even though this is my first screenplay it is a true story and a first-hand account of a number of unbelievable events. The film is not only entertaining it has a teaching tool that reveals the roots of the fear for law enforcement in black communities nationwide. The Corporate Klan is also completed and in the marketing pipeline
