About Me

About Me

I am a screen writer living in Los Angeles. I also write film reviews for Variety and LA Weekly. I have been an out lesbian since I was 16. I like to volunteer as much free time I have to the LGBT youth through the community centers as well as advice Tumblr accounts. Some people would describe me as a workaholic, but I just say I’m preparing for my early retirement.
