I am a Production Designer as well as a writer (novels and screenplays.) My work in film began with a job at The Community Film Workshop of Chicago. While there, I made my own movies & used one, Strays (based on The Subterraneans) as a portfolio piece for the American Film Institute, which I attended as a Directing Fellow. I am sort of based in France, working in the states on movie production. Essentially, I live "on location." My best work is often down in departure lounges. Sparkle Life is my first novel.
