What's your vision?
In this age of diversity, as a female writer-producer-director, I bring skill and experience to your next project. My goal is to bring forth the creative vision that inspired you towards your film, television or new media project and see it realized with excellence.
A multi-platform screenwriter, I have over almost two decades of writing, production and directorial experience in award winning film, television, new media, theatre and dance, including VR, single cam/multi-cam projects and live events. My most recent work as a screenwriter includes a VR project written for a 360° environment for the Bible Society UK (co-writer) and the 3-time Silver Telly Award winning Episode 5 "Asia: The Great Wall and Beyond" of the TBN television series “Inexplicable: How Christianity Spread to the Ends of the Earth” produced by Cooke Media Group, where I am a development executive. |
A former member of the Alliance of Women Directors in Los Angeles, a script consultant and a book-to-screen adaptation consultant for Stage 32 based in Hollywood and Cooke Media Group, I hold a B.S. in Ministerial Studies, graduate work in UCLA’s Professional Program in Producing Film, Television and New Media and I am pursing my master's at Asbury University. I am a firm believer in always honing my craft to tell the best story possible.

Award winning...
“A good story told well.” That is my goal as a writer-producer-director. My projects win awards and I’ve been privileged to be part of award-winning production companies. The comedy television series “The Steve & Kathy Show” won 3 regional Emmy Awards and 69 Telly Awards in three seasons (staff writer, production coordinator, audience coordinator, publicist), and “Asia: The Great Wall and Beyond” produced by Cooke Media Group scooped up 3 Silver Telly Awards (co-writer). Here’s a quick sampling of my work as a writer-producer-director.
Courage for Life Prison Ministry Testimonies
It was a privilege to direct the filming of these testimony videos. Shot on location at the Chillicothe, Missouri Correctional Center.
"Two Keys" Feature Film ScriptAn "Audience Choice" winner as a short film script, the feature-length script is placing well in film festivals and screenplay contests. Inspired by true events, it's a powerful story of friendship and the unifying force of love as two teenage girls – a messianic Jew from America and a radicalized Palestinian Muslim – struggle to make their lives - and their faith - count in Jerusalem.
We are seeking financing for this feature film project. If you'd like to find out more, please contact us at [email protected] #faith #yourlifematters |
