When I was a child, I wrote a picture book about a group of kids who time-traveled with a trash-eating monster to clean up the environment and save the planet. The monster had a head like a paper fortune teller. All at once, I became a science fiction and comedy writer. Today, I write science fiction and fantasy television with a dash of humor.
In 2020, I was a finalist for the CBS Writers Mentoring Program. In 2021, I was a semi-finalist for the Women’s Weekend Film Challenge’s Pilot Accelerator Semi-Finalist.
Explore my original pilots below, which range from comedy to science fiction.
