I started writing plays in 2022 and have since completed four full-lengths, a handful of one-acts, and a few dozen ten-minute scripts, with an additional 40 to 50 works-in-progress of varying lengths and states of completion. While most of my plays are contemporary comedies, they often provide a sharp critique of human civilization and American society, exploring themes of identity, power, and the ever-looming specter of an uncertain future. I'll admit, quite a bit of it is shit.

My ultimate goal is to make theatre that’s accessible to everyone. My plays are written in colloquial language, aimed especially at younger audiences, with the hope of drawing in the next generation of theatre artists and enthusiasts. While my narratives often carry significant symbolism and delve into darker themes, they usually resolve in common contemporary fashion. An undercurrent of dry, dark, and often absurd, humor runs through nearly everything I write, even when the world is on fire and circumstances bleak.

I’ve also written several stage adaptations based on the works of O. Henry and Edgar Allan Poe, with the aim of eventually collecting enough for full-length anthology-style productions of each. I am drawn to these writers for their surprising twists and unconventional narrative structures; elements I attempt to incorporate into my own storytelling, as well.

I am a middle-aged white male, but I am also a feminist, a disabled veteran, and a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community. I’m an advocate for civil rights, and I firmly believe in the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion, both in theatre and beyond. Overall, my work aims to provoke thought, challenge societal norms, and create space for conversations that lead to change.
