WORLDS OF CONSEQUENCE
Character-driven film and television forged in survival and desire.
FILM AND TELEVISION
I write original features and long-form series driven by character under pressure.
I’m drawn to stories where power shifts, loyalties strain, and survival reshapes identity.
Windturner is my flagship world — a mythic military saga forged from that tension.
