Work one-on-one with an executive at mutually agreed upon times around your schedule. To start, you'll have a 15-minute strategy call with your executive to get the lay of the land for the month. Then, you’ll have email access to your executive throughout, plus four one-hour story notes sessions. Work on a single screenplay or multiple scripts plus get additional notes on your pitch, brand strategy, and career advice - work your mentorship to its fullest potential!
My background is primarily in theatrical and streaming features, and I am well-informed in developing, selling and producing films. I have worked in many different genres including but not limited to sci-fi, horror, action, drama, comedy, genre benders, period pieces, biopics, and superhero adaptations. I am a firm believer that specificity is the gateway to universality, and I love helping writers see their ideas come to fruition. I love working with writers who have a singular voice and a distinctive point of view and am particularly interested in female-driven stories! I love reading from a wide variety of genres and love getting to explore different themes!
