Story Developer / Script Consultant

I love helping other writers and artists develop their own work for the screen, stage, online. Development can be such an elusive position that requires the right kind of nurturing. I love giving story feedback or script coverage and mastering the art of that pesky development application (trust me, it’s an art!) I lead from a position of asking questions first. It’s important that whoever I’m working with can find their own answers and feel empowered to trust their story instincts. Check out some of the projects I’ve been a Story Developer/Consultant on below. Need some help on your project? Feel free to get in touch.
