I know who I am, and what my natural talents and gifts are! I've demonstrated my value and I understand it. I believe in my dreams. And I'm constantly writing, directing and producing more art for the world!!
As a child, I started out with art and music! Eventually, I learned how to combine the two. This morphed into dramatic and visual arts where I'd write my imaginary ...world from a very self-contained creative space. (In the beginning, I didn't even have a clue of a concept! THE CREATOR just started walking me in the right direction.)
The late Professor James Haskins critiqued my first screenplay and told me I had the potential to be a screenwriter. Somewhat of a mentor to me, I learned from him, and took off like a rocket in search of a destination. This turned into over '20' screenplays, over '20' stage plays, and '4' books while directing, casting, producing, acting and touring some of my work. What a thrill!!
My new suspense thriller movie HOUSE OF APRIL 1ST is really good! It was selected in The Accolade Global Film Competition 2024, The Venice Film Festival 2024, and won Best Feature Film in the Paris Lift-Off Film Festival 2024.
The Golden State Film Festival 2024 and The California International Film Festival 2024 has screened my political drama THUG FOR PRESIDENT. The Golden State Film Festival 2023 screened my short film, Love Ain't This 1, and The Indie Short Fest 2022 selected my comedy sitcom The Duval's as a semi-finalist.
Atlas Entertainment and Wishmaker Films are just two companies that considered some of my work in the past, and I've also placed quarter finalist in several screenplay competitions. I'm formerly represented by a WGA Agent.
I continue to work with community organizations and churches for student scholarship fundraising, community outreach, feeding the homeless and more.
Currently, I'm still writing, directing and producing films, sitcoms, web series and more; to include music production and editing.
I don't sit around and wait for the phone to ring anymore. I keep putting the work in! When the time is right, more success will happen ...right on time!
