Biography

Aleisha Hull is a writer from Savannah, Georgia, where she grew up as the black sheep in a close-knit extended working-class family. She started screenwriting at American University where her feature screenplay My Friend, Grandpa Earl earned her an honorable mention at the School of Communications’ Vision Awards.

Aleisha expanded her skill set by taking TV and sketch writing classes, leading to her working as a staff writer on sketch teams throughout Atlanta.

Realizing that she just might have something going with this writing thing, in 2019,  Aleisha moved cross-country to Los Angeles sight unseen to take her career as a screenwriter to the next level. She continued her studies in sketch writing at UCB Sunset and TV writing for comedy at UCLA’s Professional Program where she earned a certificate in Writing for Television in 2021. While there, she wrote the dark comedy pilot Like Mother, Like Daughter, a 2nd Rounder in the 2022 Austin Film Festival Screenplay Competition, and a semifinalist in the 2021 Nashville Film Festival Screenplay Competition.

Today,  Aleisha attributes her love for humanizing relatably and understandably flawed female characters and lionizing working-class people and underdogs to her larger-than-life family and the obstacles she has overcome.
