    I write about stories. A lot. At any given moment, I am thinking about how a story works and trying to understand how they work. As a consultant, I guided my clients toward realizing their artistic visions through my extensive understanding of storytelling. I am a storyteller to my core, with a passion and determination for communicating creativity with clarity and resonance. My imagination is boundless, and I use my learned ability to critique and restructure stories to hone what I find most intriguing about my stories. I have written short screenplays for clients, including slice-of-life, horror, and drama, as well as romantic and erotic fiction for story apps on IOS. I also work to match my innate creativity to my client's vision, but inherent to all my writing is subtle and nuanced emotionality, vivid and entertaining descriptions, and rich dramatic tension with a comedic twist.

    Writer with a knack for clarity, structure, creativity, brevity, flow, and fun. Winner of the $3,000 Jack Nicholson Prize in Screenwriting. Graduate of UCLA's prestigious School of Theater, Film, and Television, with a concentration in screenwriting. Also experienced in videography and web content management. - Pros & Cons of Hiring Me: Pros - Reliable: I am on time, I meet deadlines; no matter the stakes, I’ve always proven that I can be counted on. - Friendly & Respectful: I’m nice, courteous, professional. In the past, doing direct service at a nonprofit, even when working with upset or challenging members of the public, I was always calm and respectful, and found ways to help, alleviating anyone’s anger, making sure everyone was heard and responded to. - Diverse Knowledge & Skill Set: I have studied and worked in all aspects of film production; worked with Photoshop daily; managed social media accounts and websites; managed people, too; I read a wide range of books and am interested in (and teach myself about) a wide range of subjects; know a surprising amount about codecs and a small bit about programming; have taught classes and created curricula; migrated and managed databases; even re-organized equipment rooms—to name a few examples, off the top of my head. - Fast Learner: This is how I wound up with that diverse knowledge and skill set. I can’t say I in any way earned this, but I’m grateful for it: I’ve always had the ability to quickly understand how and why something works. - Creative: Then, once I’ve understood how and why something works, I immediately start thinking of new things to do with it, and how to improve it. - Proofreader’s Eye: I have an impeccable eye for spelling, grammar, and punctuation. And the flexibility to match a company’s style—for instance, removing Oxford commas, if that’s preferred. Cons - Recovering Perfectionist: I have learned that if there is *not* a deadline, I have to give myself one, or I will work on the project until the end of time. - Quiet: Not historically the one to start the conversation. Once, I was proud of earning the “ResTV Ninja Award” at my campus TV station, awarded for coming in, doing my work, and leaving without anybody knowing I’d been there—but over time, I’ve realized a person can be too quiet. I have improved a lot over the years, and continue to push this comfort zone. - Diverse Knowledge & Skill Set: For example, since I’ve worked in every aspect of film production, I have above-average knowledge and skills in lighting, shooting, directing, editing, and some simpler special effects and animating, but I have expertise in none of these. - Creative: Sometimes, the boss isn’t looking for originality. I have learned to restrain my instincts and follow a more worn path, depending on the situation. - Proofreader’s Eye: Not everyone always wants to know their hyphen should have been an em-dash. I don’t usually correct people’s writing. But if I see a mistake on something public-facing, that represents the company, I will usually ask the person responsible whether they want to be informed of any errors—and if they don’t care about em-dashes, I don’t bother them. - Zero Hand-Eye Coordination: If part of the job is drawing, cutting, or folding in a straight line (without software), I am the wrong candidate.
