Like many writers living in LA, I’ve got TV pilots and movie scripts to pitch. I graduated from the two-year screenwriting program of the venerable L.A. institution, Writers Bootcamp. When I was teaching in Texas, I flew out to spend a summer at the UCLA Writers’ Program.

I’ve learned from some excellent teachers like Mitch German, Steve Kaplan, and Erik Bork. I’ve taken TV Scriptwriting from Screenwriter U, Ellen Sandler, Corey Mandel, and Jen Grisanti. Screenwriting seems to me like writing poetry, a very spare, elegant, specific format that feels quite the opposite of me some days.

My entertainment content is featured at CreativeFuelProductions.com. I produced and wrote an award-winning radio show on public radio called “Making the Grade,” so I like doing things in the background, too. My Video Script-Writing Certification is from American Writers and Illustrators (AWAI). I am also a member of AWAI’s Circle of Success and the Professional Writer’s Alliance.
