About Me
Aside from my work on the Pitchfests, and my freelance work, I also continue to write on spec as much as possible, and make every effort to keep my writing tool sharp.
I am also involved in the operation of Cinemapolis, one of two non-profit theaters operated by the 7th Art Corporation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the belief that film is an art form, and should be treated as such. We strive to expose the community to independent, foreign, and documentary films.
Working for 7th Art helps nourish my love of film.
