About me: Yeah, I do have the nerve to call myself filmmaker/director/writer/actor/person/woman/dramatic/crazy/colorful/sarcastic and all that comes with it. A bit on the stoicly sensitive side, I came to writing, real young nappy headed sitting on a bed clovers with a hand-me-down Spiderman bike mangled by the tree I had run into, to make a world of my own (where banana seats don’t break)…the rest is somewhere between history and the southern drawl that I make stories out of….The official bio is as follows, it’s a bit dry, but you get the picture—
