Genre-Bending Twists

I write in a variety of mediums and genres — from speculative fiction to dark comedy and fast-paced drama — but the common thread is always transformation. I’m drawn to stories where characters are standing at a threshold, where the rules of the world (or their own lives) suddenly stop making sense. From page to screen, here’s a selection of my pilots, fiction, and produced work.
