Pitch Tips
Start with why you care! Why did you choose to write this script? What does it mean personally to you? Even if it's set in space 5 million years ago, I want to know how it reflects your life and the questions you want to answer.
Pitching is about connecting and communicating your vision. I can help make sure audiences understand exactly what you want to say and how to get your idea to the page (to the screen!) without losing your voice.
Formats Interested In

Shorts
Particularly Interested In
Half-hour comedies, both lighter sitcoms to darker tones. I'm always interested in LGBTQIA+ stories, especially with trans characters (I identify as queer and transmasculine). I'm also interested in reading any scripts featuring characters with disabilities, or other identities/experiences underrepresented in media right now.
