What I'm looking for

I’m seeking to expand my network and experience in the more creatively driven area of writing for film and TV.

On Thresholds, an animated sci-fi fantasy series in early development, I’m a founding partner and work with the IP creators to develop its narrative into an episodic format. I also manage the Season 1 writers’ room hiring and writing schedule, and pitch the project to potential co-producers and funders.

At So Far So Good, I worked with the director of Luces de Abril to develop the script ahead of pre-production and assisted with historical research. At Superduper, I developed story worlds and characters across two IP, wrote character profiles and animation briefs, and pitched concepts for games and commercials.

My production experience includes working as Showrunner’s Assistant on The Witcher S.4 & S.5 and The Perfect Couple S.1, and as Assistant to Benioff and Weiss on 3 Body Problem. Earlier roles included writer’s room, cast, production, and location assistant work on film and television productions.
