About Robert
I’ve always had a love for cinema, even as kid. My childhood happy-place was escaping into movies and the fantasy of being a part of them. My thoughts are visual and I try to bring that through in my writing.
After trying my hand on an independent film, where I was able to get a feel for the process, I realized my greater passion was in the storytelling. I’m inspired by visual storytellers and movies with an emotional gut-punch.
At the core of my scripts is usually a loner, an outcast, who leads you on an emotionally journey to an unexpected place within yourself we all have. My strength is found in character-driven dramas and thrillers, focusing on diversity, LGBTQIA+, and strong female roles.
I’ve had success on the contest market with several scripts, including being selected as ISA’s Top 25 Screenwriters to Watch 2022.
