I'm a former member of the Writers Guild of America West, have authored numerous screenplays, written and produced movie trailers and promos, and worked on crew and as an editor on a range of documentary films. Among commercial editorial credits are documentaries for A&E, Discovery, the History Channel, and PBS.
I'm proudest of my work on an adaptation of Manlio Argueta's novel ONE DAY OF LIFE, about the savagery in El Salvador in the early 80's. John Bloomgarden Productions.
My non-fiction personal projects have focused on issues of community, work, and culture, I've received grants from the AFI, and state Humanities and Arts Councils in Wyoming, New Jersey and NY. For screenwriting, I've won artist fellowships to the MacDowell Colony, VCCA, and the Djerassi Foundation.
I've taught filmmaking, most recently at Endicott College, and also at Cal Arts, NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, Brooks Institute, Boston University, Brooklyn College, SMFA, and Emerson College. I am a graduate of Columbia University’s School of the Arts and was a Directing Fellow at the American Film Institute, LA.
