Hi! I am a playwright/screenwriter (with West Coast representation) whose work is frequently produced in the NYC/NJ area. I like to use humor in my scripts, because... life is short!
My full-length satire "Big Yikes!" has been selected to be produced January 12th by the UP Theatre for their Dead of Winter Reading Series.
"Melting" - my play about climate change - was selected to be produced this October at Siena College for their Climate Justice plays series and this December at the Tank Theatre for the 2024 International Human Rights Festival.
Co-wrote the screenplay "The Lure of Asbury Park" which has been selected as a finalist in the 2024 AP'N3 Film Challenge.
I co-wrote the screenplay "I Can't Hear You" which won BEST COMEDY in the 2024 Jersey Shore Film Festival and 2nd place in the APin3 Film Contest in Asbury Park, NJ and was just selected to be screened in the Bread & Roses Film Festival at the Showroom in Asbury Park (October, 2024).
My ten-minute play Overdose won 2nd place for BEST SHORT in the 2023 Downtown Urban Arts Festival at Playwrights Horizons. Which was REALLY cool.
My play "Atlantics Pharmaceuticals" was produced in the 2023 International Human Rights Festival at the Tank theatre.
I also write about vampires.
Dracula…in Denver!, my ten-minute play about Count Dracula’s misadventures on Hinge, has been produced in the Your Worst Nightmare Festival (San Francisco, 2022), the Secret Theatre one-act play festival (Queens, 2022), the Equity Library Theatre short play festival (Manhattan, May 2023), the In Death Short Play Festival (Burgdorff Performing Arts Center, September 2023), the Short Play Festival BOO! (The Players Theatre, October 2023), the SOOP to Nuts short play festival (Pelham, November 2023) and will be read at the Asbury Park bookstore (October 4, 2024).
I kept busy during the COVID-19 pandemic
In 2019, my spec script for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, “Shabbat Blessings for the Baguette,” gave me valuable insight into the world of LA/NYC talent agencies. That year, I also had the pleasure of attending the HBMG National Winter Playwright’s Retreat in Creede, Colorado.
I have a BFA in Dramatic Writing from SUNY Purchase College (2013) and work part-time for the Dean's office at Columbia University, School of the Arts.
