I write stories. I dig them out of myself -- sometimes like silver, sometimes like uranium. I like to write screenplays about forgotten people hellbent on upending the world. My full-length plays have been produced in New York City and San Francisco. I’ve been a journalist for 10 years, focusing on finance, technology and climate. I follow the facts and I try to create worlds I haven’t seen on screen before.
