About

I'm a graduate of NYU where I received a BFA in Dramatic Writing and double-minored in English Literature and Creative Writing. I am a skilled creative writer and a published essayist, and I'm a reliable leader with experience. I'm an aspiring screenwriter and playwright who hopes to use my work to continue supporting women and underrepresented folks in creative industries. I'm also an avid reader and obsessive moviegoer, not to mention a nerd for all things Broadway.
