I am originally from Brooklyn, New York. I have lived in England for nearly two decades and have dual US/UK citizenship. I have a B.A. in Russian from Columbia University and was an Intelligence Officer in the US Navy. I also have a Master’s degree in Opera and worked as a singer, director and stage manager in several US opera companies, as well as being a theater actor both in drama and musicals in the US and UK.
I have had screenplays on Page Turner's longlist in 2022, 2023 & 2024 and have placed in other screenwriting competitions. I also wrote and produced two critically-acclaimed plays at the ADC Theatre in Cambridge and received a Special Mention at the Carlo Annoni International Playwriting Competition for my play MRS TCHAIKOVSKY.
