About Me

I'm a Screenwriter, Film & TV. I'm always going back and forth between LA and the OC. So many wonderful developments happened last year, most notibly my seven-month involvement on RUSH HOUR 3. Now, it is a new year and the amazing developments continue. Most recently, I have completed a feature-length Eighties-esque horror screenplay. I now have fantastic and creative Agent in my life. Writing is continuing as I dive head-first into a suspense/thriller that I have been cooking up since college. When I'm not working, I usually head back to the OC. I obviously love going to the movies, but also enjoy dining with friends, going to clubs, and most importantly, roaming around Best Buy and Borders. I'm quick witted and have a knack for being sarcastic, which leads me to believe that I've successfully maintained the New Jersey blood passed onto me by my parents. A lot of people who meet me say I should do stand-up, or be an actor. But I'd rather have a career behind the camera, directing the kinds of films that I enjoyed so much during my childhood. And that is not a laughing matter.
