About Me

My experience traverses science, business, and the visual, literary, & performing arts. In every project I approach, I harness both my creative and analytical agency to develop strategies that are grounded in data, competitively distinct, emotionally compelling, and – my specialty – positioned to succeed with a formula that unites logic and vision.

My Formula

Art + Science = The Ultimate Yes-And

Prosody, technique, emotional connection.

Data, analysis, optimization.

 

Together, these lines of thought – generally considered mutually exclusive – unite to create a business world with no limits, where either-or doesn’t exist. There’s only yes-and.

 

Yes, the logic of science tells you, here’s why this is important and what’s been done before. And, the creativity of art responds, here’s all the ways we could solve for it. Yes, science calls back, and X is great but Y didn’t work last time, plus Z’s been done a million times. Yes, you’re right, art admires, and so here’s how we could rework Y and put a new spin on Z. Back and forth, again and again, until they get it right.

 

This approach isn’t just fireproof – it’s fun. The most auspicious pathways are identified and forged; the audiences are identified and their characters and motivations understood; the most original narratives are psychologically structured and assigned their proper channels. This is what I do. This is how I approach my work, and it's what makes me so unique.

Give the Need, Get the Goal.

No matter the medium, no matter the project, no matter the audience, what's surer than anything is that there’s a need creating a gap. Let me know what that is, and I'll design the best approach to fulfill it.

Where to begin. Working with Theresa is a dream for any director. Her creativity, professionalism, and dedication are so welcome on these high intense, time pressured projects.

 

And that is exactly what you need when making a treatment – someone who knows your approach, your wit, and your specific way of filming and is capable of translating these into clear, inspiring, funny and always compelling pieces of text.
