Before the pandemic, I started doing stand-up to cope with my best friend’s cancer diagnosis. Comedy became my way to survive what I couldn’t control. A teacher encouraged me to explore writing, acting, and performing—not just to be funny, but to process real pain through creativity.
Years later, when my dad died—alone in the garage, undiscovered for days—I turned to storytelling again. I took classes at Second City to make sense of the grief, and discovered writing didn’t just help me heal—it gave me purpose.
Now I write dark comedy and grounded drama that explores the messy intersection of grief, identity, mental health, and resilience. My voice is sharp, emotional, and often funny in the darkest moments—because I’ve lived those moments. I’m drawn to characters who are unraveling but still trying to hold it together, and I write stories that make people laugh one second and feel gutted the next.
