Growing up under the gloomy skies and dense forestry of Portland, Oregon, my first love was found in speciality aisles of video stores and bookstores: horror and genre fiction.

Viewings of seminal terrors from around the world at a young age may have lost me sleep, but they paved the path for me to become obsessed with creating and sharing the fears and curiosities we have in common - a passion only amplified by a short stint in journalism in which I won a national award.

My writing and filmmaking are partly rooted in the fusion of dark genre and family dynamics; my films have screened at international genre festivals, and I was most recently recognized as a 2025 Screencraft Horror Screenplay Finalist.

Graduating from USC Cinematic Arts’ screenwriting program, I have also worked with companies such as NEON, Blumhouse, Monkeypaw and FilmNation, seeking to learn the operations of these studios and their collaborations with filmmakers.
