Hi everyone —
I’m a screenwriter from the San Francisco Bay Area. I’m currently developing Small Town Guy, a half-hour, memoir-driven dramedy told as a serialized anthology. It’s voice-forward, emotionally layered, and rooted in the idea that leaving home might be the only way to truly remember it.
I’m here to connect with industry professionals, find creative collaborators, and get this project off the ground—with the right team. Always open to constructive feedback and meaningful conversation.
Let’s build something that lasts.
