SCREENWRITER
I am an experienced screenwriter, comedy sketch writer, and lyricist. I’ve written over eight short films along with over forty comedy sketches. In addition to writing, producing and acting in these films/sketches, I also wrote and recorded over twenty comedy music records. I strongly feel with having experience on both sides of production I’ve developed a better understanding of what is needed to fulfill the goal of the project.
