Elena Perez

Screenwriter

Biography

After building a successful career in tech and marketing startups, Elena Perez decided it was more fun (and faster) to shape the future in stories than in real life. Taking inspiration from her multicultural heritage and her background in tech, Elena's work often explores how personal context (culture, gender, economic status, time, etc.) influences identity. Her dark-but-heartfelt portfolio is already attracting attention: In 2021, she scored representation by DialedIn Entertainment and, soon after, was staffed on a major broadcast TV show. Prior to that, her work was recognized by WeScreenplay, ScreenCraft, PAGE and Final Draft Big Break, among many others. She is a 2021 ISA Fast Track Fellow, a 2020 Stowe Story Labs Fellow, CineStory TV alum and also earned an M.A. poetry on a full fellowship. Elena recently moved to Los Angeles from New York City’s Lower East Side. She lives in the Downtown LA Arts District with her husband (also a writer) and dog (prefers naps to writing).
