Past Projects

My work is naturalistic – usually with female-identifying protagonists–combined with absurdist comedy, showing how ridiculous current norms are. I put characters in strange, real, situations, where women are expected to behave and react in pre-approved ways. However, those pre-approved ways don’t make logical sense: result, comedy of the “I can’t believe this is happening!” vein.
