What are your expectations for 2026?
2026 is about ignition — the moment where years of creative groundwork turn into motion. I’ve spent the last few years building a slate of stories that blend emotion, tension, and truth. This year, the focus is on forward movement: packaging, production, and partnership. My goal is simple — to see Chasing Truths, Handprint, or More Going Down take that final step from page to screen. It’s time for the work to meet the world.
What projects are you currently working on?
I’m currently developing several screenplays that speak to different corners of the human experience.
– More Going Down — a Miami-set noir about power, loyalty, and the dangerous cost of ambition.
– Chasing Truths — an award-winning, memory-driven drama about identity, faith, and acceptance.
– Handprint — a modern noir thriller now under contract with Price Productions.
And Honesty — a short that began as a personal meditation and became a message: “This is your life. Share it.” Each story carries its own pulse, but all beat toward the same heart — connection.
What would you ask event organizers in the film industry to do in order to support the creativity of highly talented independent artists like yourself?
Give independent artists real access — not just to audiences, but to allies. The best festivals and organizations champion creative risk and emotional authenticity, not just market metrics. I’d ask organizers to spotlight writers before production begins, to make mentorships more visible, and to create real bridges between creatives and producers who value original, character-driven work. The next great story won’t come from an algorithm — it’ll come from someone brave enough to tell the truth.
What vision or desire currently guides your artistic choices?
Connection and honesty. Every story I write is an attempt to hold a mirror to what it means to be alive — flawed, searching, and still hopeful. My guiding phrase is simple: This is your life. Share it. That’s what drives my choices, my collaborations, and my voice. Whether I’m writing about love, betrayal, or redemption, the goal remains the same — to make the audience feel seen, even for a moment.
