STORY FIRST. ALWAYS.
I work with writers, directors, producers, and companies to develop projects from early ideas through to pitch and beyond.
Most of the work comes down to the same thing. Getting clear on what a project is really about, what’s working, what isn’t yet landing, and how to move it forward in a way that feels both creatively honest and strategically sound. This can be as simple as notes on a draft, or as involved as working together to shape a project from early idea through pitch.
INTENTION. CLARITY. MOMENTUM.
The goal is always the same. Build something that actually lands.
WHO I WORK WITH
WRITERS & CREATORS
For writers, directors, and creators developing original work or refining a project for pitch.
This work is focused on getting clear, building confidence, and preparing the project to move forward.
PRODUCERS, STUDIOS & COMPANIES
For production companies, studios, brands, and teams looking for support across a slate or specific initiative.
This work tends to be both creative and strategic, with an emphasis on building something that can sustain over time.
WHAT THIS CAN INCLUDE
Depending on the project, the work can take different forms. This might include:
• early concept development and world-building
• script and story feedback at any stage
• character and emotional development
• pitch preparation and positioning
• slate and portfolio assessment
• franchise and expansion thinking
• creative team recommendationsIn some cases, this extends beyond traditional film and television into branded or experiential work, where the same storytelling principles apply.
HOW I WORK
My background is in studio development, where I spent nearly two decades evaluating material, giving notes, and helping projects get made.
What I offer now is an extension of that process. More focused, more direct, and tailored to the needs of each project.
I’m looking at what the story is really about, where it’s losing clarity or momentum, and how to move it forward.
KEEP IT HUMAN.
Because that’s what audiences actually respond to.
Engagements are tailored to the needs of the project.
Some are focused and short-term, such as script or pitch development. Others are ongoing, particularly when supporting a slate or working more deeply with a team over time.
