I have been writing about my relationship with body and self for well over a decade and my viewpoint is constantly evolving as I do. Some past pieces feel outdated at this point but I keep them up because it’s an honest portrayal of where I was at the time. Writing about eating disorder recovery is sensitive and complicated. Writing about weight even more so. I am constantly learning and seeking to know and understand more while also remaining truthful to my own personal experience.
I have written comedy videos for The Dad as well as story edited and co-directed a docuseries about my high school gym teacher Joe Toles for GEICO.
My pilot Seven South, about a teen navigating her time in a psych ward after a failed suicide attempt, has been a Semifinalist in the Big Apple Film Festival Screenplay Competition (Spring 2023) as well as a Quarterfinalist in the ScreenCraft TV Pilot Script Competition (2024), Writers X Writers (2022), and the ScreenCraft Screenwriting Fellowship (2022).
I am currently working on a memoir about growing up in mental hospitals/treatment centers and a YA novel. I live in Brooklyn with my husband Ben and cat Punky.
