✍🏽 I once read that writers tend to ask the same questions over and over in their work, and that all of their characters attempt to answer those questions in their own specific ways. My work generally asks questions about motherhood, existentialism, death, and how people process grief and anger. My characters answer those questions in the strangest ways possible.

💀 My writing genre is generally horror/thriller, but I dabble in drama and comedy as well - I like a good blend. Life is absurd, horrifying, wonderful; I try to show all of those things.

🎬 My directing heroes are Hiro Murai, Sofia Coppola, Jordan Peele, Jonathan Glazer, and Céline Sciamma.

📺 The TV shows I wish I’d created are Atlanta, Pen15, The Last Man on Earth, Fleabag, and Six Feet Under.
