    I am a professional screenwriter, editor, and script doctor who has written for CBS, Paramount+, Amazon, and Paramount Pictures. I've crafted features for 20th Century Fox, Warner Bros., Happy Madison, and Bad Robot. A pilot of mine was produced by NBC, as well as a children's episodic for Cartoon Network and an animated pilot for Adult Swim. I've also done short-form comedy material for entities like The Onion, HBO, and National Lampoon. I've written faith-based material for PureFlix, Super Bowl commercials, and am the Head Writer for Monarch Wine - a digital magazine devoted to vino and music. Previous to my own professional career, I worked as an Oscar-nominated screenwriter's assistant for eight years, trusted with the editing, proofreading, and content development for a number of major studio projects. I work swiftly without sacrificing quality and am adept in a number of genres. I'm a mentor with the International Screenwriters' Association and have a BFA from Emerson College. I furthered my studies with the Act One program in Los Angeles. I'm a write-at-home dad and a night owl, with a prolific output that I'd love to put towards projects like yours.

    So you may ask yourself, “Hey, what’s this guy’s deal?” Well, let me tell ya, Jacks, Jills, and the rest, my main aim in life is to write. Now, what exactly does this mean? Do you need a dramatic meditative script with little dialogue and a story mainly told through visuals and performances? I can do that. What about a zany surrealist comedy full of hilarious dialogue, physical comedy gags, and character growth? Boom, got it covered. What about a general creative writing assignment or an off-the-wall commercial idea? Zap! Order served! What about an animation, musical, science fiction, horror, western, or samurai script? Check, check, check, and… did you order a big meal? Because I’ve got a great big CHECK! I love writing for every genre because I believe a genre is merely a costume to serve two big truths within a film: What are our character’s goals, and what philosophy and morals is this story trying to impart to others? I have written for films, commercials, sketches, music videos, and corporate in-house videos for over ten years. In that time, I have won countless film festivals and managed to earn a buck or two doing so. My goal is to write something we can both be proud of. The rest is up to you!
