I am an independent filmmaker and an aspiring professional screenwriter. I have written dozens of shorts and features; along with a couple of TV pilots, such as this submission. I entered the New Haven 48 hour Filmmaking Contest for 2021 and my team and I won the Best Film Award, for "The Right Call" as well as Best Use of Genre. I was also nominated for Best Writing.
This script was submitted into the New York City Screenplay Contest 2021 where it placed as a Semi-Finalist.
I have a deep passion for screenwriting and filmmaking. I study film and story structure constantly. This script is one I've had ideas for for a long time. It was a long journey of world building and story creation until I was finally able to write the pilot episode. "Monarch" is meant as a Limited Series. I am planning a max of 6 episodes that progressively get longer as the show nears the end.
