What’s your proudest moment as a writer?
Having two of my scripts optioned and being told I should be writing for A-list actors.
What are you working on at the moment?
Getting one of the optioned scripts ready for production, revamping an old script and one of my most recent ones and thinking up ideas for more, and I'm on post-production on my first feature film.
What made you want to write in the first place?
I wanted to make movies and I became aware that movies first need a script in order to happen. My desire for filmmaking and for writing comes from wanting to tell stories from my own specific point of view. I want to see the stories that I feel are missing from the big and small screen at the moment.
