Hi! I'm Becky. I’m a screenwriter and educator. I'm not from Beverly Hills and my dad isn't friends with Steven Spielberg. I'm just a girl who fell in love with screenwriting.

 

At the age of 28, I was laid off from my job covering pop culture for a digital media site. This was just the fuck you I needed to turn my screenwriting hobby into something more. Two years later, my first feature film ASKING FOR IT (starring Stephanie Hsu, Janeane Garofalo, and David Krumholtz) had its world premiere. Today, I teach screenwriting to undergraduates at Pace University and ASKING FOR IT can be found on Peacock, Prime, and other streaming platforms.

 

Since I took that leap, I've participated in WGA fellowships, studied under Academy award-winning screenwriters, and had multiple scripts go viral on the Blacklist website. I've placed in the top 10 of screenwriting competitions such as Final Draft and Screencraft and been nominated for awards ranging from the Google Assistant Storytelling Fellowship to the WIF Features Residency. I’ve pitched to Netflix and have had general meetings with everyone from Elizabeth Banks’ Brownstone Productions to Paramount Pictures. I've also read and given notes on hundreds of screenplays.

 

Although I believe that art belongs to everyone and no one needs permission to create, committing to seeing a screenplay through can feel impossible at times. While most script doctors keep the focus solely on dialogue, structure, and pacing, my sessions are more holistic. We'll get into the nitty-gritty of the script, but we'll also break through writer's block, figure out your screenwriting why, and find a creative process that works for you.

 

 Writing is hard. But you don't have to do it alone.
