About Me: 

The road here has been a funny one. I always wanted to be a writer, and that desire was typically met with 'good-luck-with-that' eye rolls. I graduated from the University of Rhode Island with a degree in Writing & Rhetoric, which meant I was probably going to wait tables and bartend for the rest of my life. When COVID put the kibosh on the restaurant business, I figured it was time to chart my own course. The bottom felt like a good place to start. 

 

Since 2020, my scripts have amassed tens of millions of views on YouTube. The journey has taken me through several niches, including True Crime, American History, Caught-on-Camera, and Police Body and Dash-Cam videos. I know more than I ever thought I would about mattresses, Ponzi schemes, serial killers, and the Arkansas State Police.

 

Meanwhile, I’ve built a vast screenwriting portfolio full of decorated features, pilots, and shorts. The REAL dream is to make movies (which is like telling people you want to be a rock star… which I also wanted to be at one point, but that’s a story for another time). 

 

Dreams don’t come true. Hard work simply pays off. Now, I can proudly say that I’m a PRODUCED screenwriter, whose debut feature, Bonding, wrapped filming in the Summer of 2025 and is currently in post-production. And while it’s new, fun, and exciting, there’s no time to rest on laurels. My head’s down, and my fingers are flying. If hard work pays off, I can only imagine what harder work might bring.
