Artistic Statement
The most recent of my writing has revolved around generations of families and friends and what legacies we leave behind and move forward with. How do we move forward? I find myself asking this after good and bad events in my life, and I try to resolve that question through my writing. My goal with my creative works is to try to deliver my experience, in all of its failures and successes, in a way that feels honest and resonant. I want everyone to recognize parts of themselves, their struggles or successes, in my own work. And I want my scripts and projects to be a safe, inclusive space, where anyone can gather to explore and find truths together. I still do not know the best way to do that, but writing is my continual effort towards it.
