ABOUT
“I want adventure in the great wide somewhere/ I want it more than I can tell/ But for once it might be grand/ to have someone understand/ I want so much more than they’ve got planned”
– “Belle Reprise” Beauty & The Beast, 1991
As an eight-year-old girl, I knew Belle was onto something. I felt this in my bones and determined right then and there I would not settle. I was made to do great things and I just had to figure out what those were.
Thirty some odd years later and I’m still figuring it out, but I can honestly say I haven’t settled. I’ve pursed dreams big and small. From singing the National Anthem at a Minor League Baseball Game to becoming a script supervisor, working with childhood heroes and on some amazing projects, I’ve achieved some great things.
But I'm not done yet. My next big dream is seeing my name on the screen as a screenwriter. I’ve always loved writing, even before I met Belle. In 2018, I graduated with my MFA in TV & Screenwriting from Stephens College and have since been a PAGE Finalist, Stowe Finalist, Emerging Screenwriters Finalist, Big Break Semifinalist, AFF 2nd Rounder, and among the top 15% in the Nicholl Fellowships. As of October 2024, I also hold the #1 Animated project on Coverfly.
I enjoy writing pieces with an emphasis on family-fun adventures that appeal to all ages, and you'll often find (wo)man's best friend in many of my stories. The Cool Happenings page features more screenwriting and script supervising highlights, in addition to my Coverfly and ISA profiles.
I’m seeking representation and ultimately want to write stories that bring light to this dark world.

I have a healthy addiction to school supplies, love all things sweet, count October as my favorite month, and have loved spoiling all of our precious pups with my husband.
