Emmy-winning TV comedy writer, associate creative director (copy) and producer
What I'm looking for
As a seasoned TV comedy writer and producer, I've had the privilege of working on numerous high-profile projects, including the Emmy-winning 'Late Night with Conan O'Brien' and 'Tonight Show with Conan.' My expertise lies in crafting engaging comedy pieces, writing for tight deadlines, and collaborating with top talent. With a background in copywriting and creative direction, I bring a unique perspective to the world of comedy.
Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to work with esteemed clients such as Toyota, Caesars, and Paramount, and have honed my skills in writing, directing, and producing comedy bits for various awards shows and TV programs. My experience in leading writer's rooms and interfacing with talent and network executives has given me a keen sense of what makes a project successful.
With a strong foundation in mass communication and continuing education in comedy and copywriting, I'm always looking to push the boundaries of creative storytelling and bring laughter to audiences everywhere.
