About Sarah

Screenwriter and U.S. Veteran. The very first script I wrote won Runner Up for ScreenCraft's 2015 Action & Thriller Contest and landed me representation...as well as a Huffington Post article. Since then my career has spun up with my own writing pieces (as well as with co-writers) on several projects that have garnered contest placings and pitch meetings in LA.

Unique traits: As a US military veteran I write predominately female driven action (features and TV). I'm also over 40 with two teenagers and have enjoyed writing TV dramedies as of late. I love collaboration and have worked with several co-writers in Wisconsin and in LA. Last, I've ventured into producing and have a project we just completed for a human trafficking event. Organized, Leadership Oriented, Right and Left Brain Thinker.
