Credentials

I have three produced screenwriting credits, three more scripts in development, and a short in preproduction.  I am proud to say I consulted on the script for Strange Culture, with director Lynn Hershman-Leeson.  That film premiered at Sundance and Berlin this year.

Below you'll find my listed screen credits.  I have also edited, consulted, and coached on hundreds of scripts.  If you'd like references please email me.

You can also check out my credits on imDb or at Shooting People.
