Musician, writer, and former project manager. I've never been able to choose between music and writing - and eventually gave up deciding.

Currently, I am a full-time piano teacher, songwriter, and musician performing across LA while also contributing creatively to screenwriter and showrunner Margaret Nagle's projects as a creative writing assistant. My most recent script, "Albertville," for which I have also composed the music, was a Quarterfinalist at Austin Film Festival and a Finalist in several other international festivals. I have a unique background in performing and teaching music, writing across diverse genres, and a strong organizational skillset that I sharpened as a Project Manager.
