HEAR ME ROAR!

Born and raised in the NYC suburb of Mt. Vernon (same hometown as Denzel Washington and Sean "P.Diddy" Combs), I am a child of the '70s. Influenced by disco and funk music, kung-fu movies and Hammer films, I was brought up by a single mom. Enrolled in catholic school, Sacred Heart, I spent twelve years "readin' writin' and repentin'." Upon graduating from Blessed Sacrament-St. Gabriel High School (with the Religion Award), I was eager to study zoology at the next level.

In the fall of 1990, I decided to pursue my scholarly pursuits at WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY, home of the Mountaineers. For the first two and a half years I was an energetic biology major until I hit the wall in chemistry. Unable to master the chemical disciplines, I changed majors. In the spring of 1994 I tossed my cap in the air and became a WVU graduate with a B.A. in English Literature, Creative Writing emphasis. -

Published in the collegiate literary journal Calliope vol. 6 (1994).

Restless and tired of waiting tables, I packed up and moved to Atlanta, Georgia in the winter of 1995. Caught between the infectious Buckhead nightlife and a mailroom job, I dreamed of writing for a living. In the summer of 1996 I kept a promise to myself by attending the Olympic Games. I saw Carl Lewis win his last gold medal. I was there to see Michael Johnson's gold shoes flash around the track. Inspired by those champions I wrote my first screenplay. -

Published in the e-zine The Writer's Quill vol.1 (1998).

Published in the compilation Under a Quicksilver Moon (2002).

I am currently seeking an agent / manager to help me reach my career goals.
