I am so thrilled that my play From the Perspective of a Canoe was chosen to be a semifinalist in the 2021 Bay Area Playwrights Festival! I have been chasing a placement in a festival for so long, I'm so happy I finally broke through!

​Those on the New Play Exchange can find the script there if you are curious!

Happy to announce that Employee of the Month is an official selection for the 2021 Poor Life Choices Comedy Film Festival!  A very appropriately named festival for this movie to be in.

I am so happy to announce that a new draft of my dark comedy Dorm #5 will be getting a reading at the end of this month with my very own Walking Shadow Readers Theatre! Check it out live on Friday, February 26th on our YouTube Channel!

A pandemic isn't going to keep the theatre down! Happy to share my first production with Dark Horse since becoming their Playwright in Residence: Spirit Seekers. A comedy written especially for Zoom (since we all live on Zoom now), Spirit Seekers follows an amateur group of ghost hunters as they camp out in the haunted and infamous Hunterville House, only to end up encountering more than they bargained for.
