WRITER
I'm a screenwriter and playwright. I am passionate about projects that tackle themes around justice, aging, environmental issues, and the many facets of love. My writing is smart with sardonic humor.
In my current screenplay, Old Flames, a faithful wife of 50 years reunites with an old lover, and the ties that bind are strained to the breaking point. This is the first of what I hope will be many stories from cultures throughout the world that will feature women, people of color, and other marginalized artists.
