WRITER'S REEL
ABOUT ME
I'm a 22 year old Nashville/Atlanta based screenwriter that creates stories with female and LGBTQ+ lead characters in fantasy and science fiction settings. In these genres, it's easy to get lost in the world of vampires or aliens and monsters - but I love to focus on humanity and what it means to be a human in the most extreme circumstances (like falling in love with an immortal alien that changes their face every few years, for starters). I am eager to write, no matter if it's a short film, feature, or pilot.

Outside of my solo projects, I enjoy working with directors to write a script based on their visions. My produced scripts have been selected and won in multiple festivals, including the Lipscomb Five Minute Film Festival and the Nashville Film Festival.

When I'm not hunched over a computer with Final Draft open, I enjoy being on set. I have worked in multiple departments including directing, art, camera, assistant direction, and continuity. I have post production experience as well. I'm very passionate about developing films from the ground up and creating a set that promotes a positive and uplifting environment, which is why I am also a producer.

If you have an idea and want to see it flourish, I can make it happen.
