I'm a creative and hard-working writer with plentiful experience in screenwriting, game writing, editing, and narrative design. Particularly experienced in expansive world-building, snappy dialogue, and vivid descriptions, I am always looking to bring my passion for writing to more ambitious projects.

Point-And-Click Game: "Our Girl" (2024) -
A point-and-click horror game that I illustrated, wrote, and programmed. The story centers around a photographer who must escape a mall that is haunted by a camera-faced monstrosity.
Some background
I determined how I want to spend the rest of my life in my fourth-grade English class.While many of my memories of elementary school are hazy, this one is crystal clear. Our assignment was to write fictional short stories and get feedback from our classmates about them, and I decided to write one about a superhero with the power to control electricity. I finished my story and showed it to one of my friends, and he loved it. It was around then that I realized that I wanted to be a writer. With the support of my friends, family, and English teachers, I've been writing newer and better stories ever since.I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a B.S. in Radio-Television-Film. As a screenwriter, I've completed 10 full-length feature scripts, two pilots, and several shorts. I've also done plenty of game writing, both as an independent creator of interactive Twine games and as a writer on Fallout: Miami. I recently wrote for the app MeChat: Love Secrets and the website Cheddar.TV.

The Backstabbing Bookclub
I created this quest in the Skyrim Creation Kit over the course of a month. From it, I learned numerous lessons about programming in a new language (Papyrus), pacing a story properly, and designing a compelling narrative. The full quest is viewable above, and there are links to several design documents that acted as my guiding lights below.
