My Latest LinkedIn "About" Update

My Latest LinkedIn "About" Update 

Yes, I'm as thrilled about this as you probably are, but in all seriousness, I've gotten enough animation work and sold enough of my novels off my LinkedIn presence to genuinely care about how user (recruiter/story editor/reader) friendly my info is on that site.

Here's the latest version of that section. I'm pleased. Let me know what you think in the comments.

Special thanks to Melanie Anne Perry (FRSA, FlnstAM, FAPA) for helping me whip it into shape!

Animation & Character-Driven Story Specialist | Emmy-nominated Lyricist

I write character-driven stories for television animation and young adult/middle-grade fiction. I've written for studios such as Warner Bros, Netflix, and Cartoon Network on numerous episodes of audience favorites like Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated. My YA space opera, Ghost Star, was published by Amazon Kindle Press after winning the Kindle Scout reader-selection program. My comedy background as a performer with The Groundlings is foundational for the way I build story, character, and dialogue. I'm particularly interested in developing character-driven story worlds for animation and television, and collaborating on projects that grow from concept through series development.

I'm currently open to new opportunities in animation, television writing, and narrative development -- either staff or project-based roles.

I'm also interested in game narrative design and story-driven educational content, where strong characters and world-building are key.

Currently residing in Los Angeles with my awesome family and a feisty Russian tortoise—who's 100% convinced she's the real genius behind my stories. That said, I'm open to relocation within the U.S., particularly Tulsa or St. Louis, and happy to discuss other locations for the right role.

Also, available for freelance writing, voice and on-camera acting, and consulting.
