Ready to make the switch back to the film world!

Hi everyone! My name is Shawna and I love writing underlooked, feel-good stories. I'm also a director and someone who is passionate about LGBTQ media representation. Recently I have been taking steps to move on from my 9 to 5 back to the film industry and focusing again on my own projects. I would love to make new connections on here and meet some other awesome, talented filmmakers!

I'm based in San Jose, FYI. Here's where you can check out my work. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAIxHENSL6gXoQI5K2dH65A One of my recent films, LoverGirl, had a very successful festival run and now has over almost 1.5 million views on Youtube. Looking forward to having some great conversations with you all!

Hi Shawna - So nice to meet you and congrats on your recent success with LoverGirl! Thanks for sharing your YouTube page - representation is so important! What projects are you working on now?

Thank you! At the moment I have a half finished script about a young woman dealing with the aftermath of a toxic relationship containing sexual abuse, and a bunch of other funny, lighthearted ones. Writer's block is real LOL but I can't wait to sit down and finish them.
