About Dankwa

I’m a multi-award-winning writer/filmmaker from Brooklyn, NY. I’m the ONLY Three Time First Place Winner of the Scripps Broadcasting writing competition in the contest’s 20-year history.

After studying screenwriting at Morgan State University, I completed my B.S. in film at Towson University and has since produced/directed several independent short films as well as producing/directing training videos for Baltimore Police where I worked for over 14 years.

In 2020 I won ScriptED, a nationwide screenwriting competition for Strayer University’s Criminal Justice program announced during the 2020 Sundance Film Festival. The competition was held by Strayer University, in partnership with The Blackhouse Foundation.

In 2021 I returned to Morgan State as an Adjunct Professor in Multiplatform Production at their School of Global Journalism & Communication.
