Screenwriting
Writing has been a passion of mine since I was a child, and that love has never died. The page is where my visions come to life. Below are 'To Hell and Back' (Short), 'Cake' (The Bear Spec Script), 'Manic' first 30 pages (feature in development), and the screenplays for 'Changing Tune' (Short) and 'New Kid' (Episode 5: Gay Watch). Each script was written with Final Draft and workshopped along my peers and professors.
