Embedded Files
To-date, I've written 30+ film/TV/web projects of varying genres (drama, comedy, thrillers, stage plays, etc.) during my years in Los Angeles. Several have been optioned at one time or another. I've also written a few books and short stories, one of which won a campus-wide creative writing award at LA City College and was my mother's favorite story. (Both were validating!) Also, a 1st-prize essay that landed me my own educational television show here in LA. And 30+ installments in my "Adventures In Education" series which I add to every time I have an interesting teaching assignment in elementary/ middle/high schools or even the local prison facilities and one state prison!
