Screenwriting Artist Statement

I'm a writer who's fascinated by the strangeness of real life. I love describing experimental visuals, building strange worlds and creating odd characters.

 

I grew up watching 90s and early 2000s cartoons that had a huge impact on my creativity. At sixteen, I began my professional experience with writing when I was hired part-time to write as a freelance journalist, and wrote articles varying in length and topic throughout high school and college. During the early days of the pandemic, I wrote listicles for ScreenRant on some of my favorite TV shows and films. Once I found work as a video producer, I researched, developed and wrote dozens of narration, voiceover and explainer video scripts, along with unscripted documentary-style interview outlines for long-form videos between 2021 and 2023. 

 

Some genres I love are sitcom, sketch comedy, surreal humor, absurdism, sci-fi/fantasy, horror, surreal/experimental drama, and social realism. Some script formats I've written are short film, quarter-hour shorts, sketches, half-hour comedy, and half-hour drama. I was raised in Skaneateles New York, and was taught a lot of Haudenosaunee culture in public school growing up. I'm very interested in Native American stories and legends, and I hope to someday have the opportunity to collaborate with diverse voices and work alongside creators from cultures such as these. I want to be apart of the process and support other creators bring to life the unique and underrepresented tales from their communities.

 

My goal is to work in scripted development for animated television and film; I would also be excited for opportunities in live-action television, short film, feature film, and episodic content. I'm someone who loves working on a team, collaborating on developing ideas, and have always excelled in group projects.
