I'm a stay-at-home mom of three, itching for a career change. Growing through a traumatic childhood inspired me to break the cycle of addiction, abuse, and toxicity. However, it also gave me a pretty vivid imagination that feeds my love of horror (and comedy because you gotta have a good sense of humor to get through the shit I went through).
I always excelled at reading and writing in school, and was well-known for my spooky stories in grade school. I occasionally stumble upon the short stories I'd write through school, and smile at the creativity that was blooming in spite of the pain...Or maybe it was because of it. Either way, I knew I was always destined to write SOMETHING. Film and Television were my escape. I loved and appreciated all the behind the scenes work that went into making a thing. I expressed this passion at a young age, but, alas, my family did not support young me the way I wanted. So, I dropped my dream and spiraled into alcoholism.
It wasn't until losing my grandmother/angel/savior to Alzheimer's disease, and thus losing my faith in everything, that I realized what I needed was an overhaul. I decided to start the journey of following my lifelong dream of writing for film and television. So I did what any self-respecting woman with imposter syndrome does, and I got a Master's degree in English and Creative Writing with a concentration in Screenwriting.
Within the past two years, I've written 2 features, 2 shorts, 1 series bible, 1 pilot, and the following episode of my original series, along with multiple short stories. (P.S. I wrote the majority of that while breastfeeding my toddler in my lap. When my creative flow starts, there's no stopping it.) One of my horror shorts, Evil Eddie, made it to the semifinals of Killer Shorts-Season 3. I've never felt better about me than when I'm working on a screenplay. It brings me so much joy and I'd love to share my work with others.
