About Gabrielle

Gabrielle started as an actor, but quickly realized it was way more fun creating trouble for characters than being stuck inside just one. She specializes in thrillers that haunt, compel, and (occasionally) terrify, crafting narratives rich in psychological depth and fierce, complex women - recognized by industry competitions such as the Academy Fellowship, ScreenCraft, Atlanta Film Festival, and Page. When she's not plotting inventive ways to torment fictional people, Gabrielle is championing diverse stories that entertain, empower, and shake up the cinematic landscape.
