Writing
&
Directing
Why are decisions impossible? Why do we have to learn the same lesson over and over and over again? Can we ever escape the roles we’ve cast ourselves in — with friends, lovers, and family? And if so — what does it take to rip through dead skin and stand anew, naked and afraid and potentially… happy?
Telling stories that ask these questions, while surfing a tonal wave between sardonic and earnest, are what drive and excite me most. Below is some info about the short films, series, and plays I’ve written and/or directed.
