When I was four-years-old, a story I created at The Los Angeles Times Festival of Books ended up in The Los Angeles Times. The story was about a young girl who defeated a lion in a pickup basketball game. It was a tense basketball game, full of three-pointers and deception. Through this pickup basketball game, I picked up a love of storytelling. Thankfully, I didn't peak creatively at the age of four. My first self-produced web series pilot, WALKIE-TALKIE, won Best Web and New Media at the Independent Short Awards. It was also nominated for Best Web/TV Pilot at Indie Short Fest, IndieX Fest, and the Baltimore Next Media Web Fest, and was an official selection at the Toronto Film Magazine Fest and IFS L.A. Film Fest. It was also a recent semi-finalist in the Palm Springs International Film Awards. Currently, I am developing WALKIE-TALKIE as a narrative podcast. I aspire to be a comedy television writer. I majored in Marketing Communications and minored in Psychology, so I would love to market good stories in addition to telling them.
