About me

I'm here for the gritty movies, the rebellious movies, those films that pack a punch far harder than their budgets would suggest.

As a spec script writer, I love to create pulpy thrillers, mostly with female leads, that feature strong themes, brutal action, witty dialogue, and twisting scenes that have characters vying for power or falling for one another.

As a producer and writer-for-hire, I'm production savvy, budget conscious, and market orientated, able to write in a variety of styles and genres with the ultimate goal to entertain viewers while turning profit for investors.

2012 was the year I started screenwriting from Staffordshire, England and it's been a hell of a ride, from my early scripts being featured by Amazon Studios to recently penning the LA based features Break Even (starring Tasya Teles, James Callis, and Steve Guttenberg), Double Threat (starring Danielle C. Ryan, Matthew Lawrence, and Dawn Olivieri), and Night Train (starring Danielle C. Ryan, Diora Baird, Ivan Sergei, and Joe Lando).

I'm very proud to have had films featured on KTLA Morning News, written about in US Weekly Magazine, and recommended by The New York Times.

I'm all about the craft and all about the love. It doesn't matter to me if it's Tarantino or Twilight, I always look for the good in everything. I'm the author of Turn & Burn: The Scriptwriter's Guide to Writing Better Screenplays Faster, which started as a popular free online resource and I've since expanded into a highly acclaimed best-selling book that's recommended by such industry members as a former director of UTA's story department.

As a huge fan of American New Wave films of the 70's and a child of the Independent Cinema Movement of the 90's, my big dream is to make cult films that showcase strong female characters in the truest sense of the term - strong in character - with the rebellious tone and gritty aesthetic of those eras. This is something I'm in the process of doing through my production company Rebelle Rouser.

I'm also here to help change the industry too, in any way I can and for the better. In 2016, frustrated by the costs and cliques that screenwriters and filmmakers face when trying to share or source material, I started the free script hosting website Script Revolution which has flourished into a thriving community consisting of over 12,000 screenwriters and industry members. Together, we're moving the needle and getting stronger every day.

That sound cool
