About Me

Yes, this is about me. If you don't want to read it, feel free to go somewhere else.

Who / what am I? For those of you who don't know me...

I'm a screenwriter. I also fix and sell computers for a living, but primarily, I'm a screenwriter. If you want to read something I've written, email me and we'll work something out.

I live in a townhouse in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. Al Capone was married in my parish church. The bakery down the street makes a pastrami-and-cheese bread that has to be tasted to be believed. I've lived in New York for the last five years, and I love this town. I also hate it sometimes, but that's to be expected.

I'm engaged to a beautiful girl who I love more than life itself, and who makes me happier than I ever thought possible. I can watch her sleep and be content with the world.

I love movies. I love film. I love motion pictures. Whatever you want to call it, someday I'll make it for a living, God willing and the creek don't rise.

I've been lucky enough to work with (and be friends with, and live with, and love) people who love film as much as I do, and who want to make films as much as I do. And someday, you will know us by the images we burn into your brain.

Anyway. That's all I have to say for now.

[Incidentally, one of the great joys of having your own website is being able to say whatever the hell you want. You should try it sometime.]

To many people don't know what they want; they have no dreams. If "The will to conquer is the first condition of victory" (Ferdinand Foch, WWI French general), than the ability to dream is the first condition of success.
