Hi! I'm a screenwriter based in Austin. My focus is half-hour TV and I love writing science and technology-inspired stories. My sci-fi comedy BEFORE MARS was a quarterfinalist at the festival last year and a Tracking Board finalist. Currently, I'm working on FINDING SATOSHI, a global finance drama about crypto. I also created the very silly, partly-musical fitness satire GYM BUDDIES, about two ladies trying to get in shape. Let's talk about comedy, digital content, cryptocurrency, or where to get tacos!
