I love working with words and people!
After college, I spent a decade in advertising. I enrolled in night classes to write a novel, attended writers’ conferences, and landed a publishing contract. After writing books, I tried to write a ten-minute stage play—and won. I returned to the classroom to write screenplays and have written seven to date. This summer, I wrote and produced WITHOUT WOMEN. This collaborative effort of filmmaking is exciting, magical, and exhausting, but only makes me want to start another as soon as I finish.
