Building   Experiences on Stage, TV, & Screen

I am a writer for the stage, television and screen. To pay the bills and survive, I work as a 9-1-1 Operator. That makes for great stories. Please contact me for samples, scripts or DVDs of my work. Click here to preview and purchase scripts for my plays.
