I spent close to twenty years working in the ad industry, mostly as a film producer. There was a lot I enjoyed about the job, particularly the creative aspects of making commercials: concept making, casting, director search, editing, and voice over recording, among others. I also enjoyed the collaborative nature of my job. I had this 24/7 obsession with "succeeding" at my job and it was burning me out. The truth was that the constant grind was slowly killing my spirit.  ​

There was this desire to talk to colleagues about their lives and get to the heart of what mattered to them. To ask them personal questions and ponder life's greater meaning. But seeing as I felt like a complete oddball, I rarely shared much. I didn't let many people in. I yearned to write stories again, like I did throughout high school and college. I had lost a part of myself in the years of the grind and the lie I told myself was that, eventually, I'd get back to writing. But there was so much noise in my head, I couldn't hear my inner voice.  Then, change came...as it always does.
A painful divorce and a pair of layoffs from so-called “dream jobs” left me depleted—disappointed not just by circumstances, but by the parts of myself I had neglected. My mind, body, and spirit were hurting and in need of care. I realized it was time to take a break from the hustle, from the performance, from the illusion that success could ever replace wholeness.

I returned to the page to understand and ground myself in my truth. There was a novel living inside me that refused to be silenced. And finally, I wrote it. And in doing so, I found myself again.

Now, I proudly claim both titles: Writer and Executive Producer.
My creative work explores themes of truth, identity, transformation, resilience, and the courage it takes to confront our shadows and begin to heal. I believe stories are portals into ourselves, each other, and into the beautiful, mysterious fabric of life. They awaken empathy. They remind us we’re not alone.

My mission is to create art that inspires, that connects us in our shared humanity, and that opens our hearts to greater compassion and love.
