Where are you from and what inspired you to become a television writer?

I split my time growing up between Haddonfield, NJ and Philadelphia, PA. The serialization of quality storytelling in the medium inspired me to become a television writer. In the last few years, there seems to have been a shift in more character-driven fare, particularly in the drama format. And that held a lot of promise as an aspiring storyteller.

What Spec did you write to get into the workshop?

The Shield

What Spec did you write while you were in the workshop?

Nip/Tuck

Who is your all time favorite television character and why?

Archie Bunker. He gave us the creative license to say pretty much anything we want in the medium, regardless of how ridiculous, inane, profound, stupid, or intelligent it seems.
