Biography

I'm multi-award winning screenwriter, and I've also published novels and ghostwritten business books. And I'm a bit of a marketing whiz who's worked with some of the world's largest ad agencies.

Valuable Experience
It's that experience of leading creative processes and winning multi-million dollar pitches, combined with my love of storytelling, that makes me excited to be involved in the world of film and TV.

Following The Muse
I write in a variety of genres, from intelligent thrillers to historical biopics, both for film and TV. I believe in following the muse - whatever I'm inspired to write I let it come out as it wants.


Smart Approaches to Production
Some of my material is ideal for developing with established actors and producers, but I'm also working on contained scripts with an eye to launching independent productions. The content drives the production approach.

Awards

My feature script “Not Mrs. Singer” has won or placed in many festivals, including:

  • Best Feature Screenplay Historical, New York Screenwriting Awards 2023
  • Best Historical Screenplay, Chicago Script Awards 2024
  • Finalist, Los Angeles International Screenplay Awards 2024

Themes

Although I write across genres and eras, my works follows a consistent theme exploring the abuse of status among society’s elites, and the responsibility of those with ability and power to use it for more than their own self-gain.
