I am an MBA graduate turned singer-songwriter turned screenwriter-author. Growing up in a predominately white neighborhood and being the daughter of a famous South African talk show, I never felt like enough. I was insecure and could never find my own voice. This all informs my writing. My characters are mostly black women and girls. I love to explore family dynamics across different cultures, sisterhood, outcasts standing up against social norms, rebels showing their human spirit rise time and time again, and any inspiring stories promoting the well-being, empowerment and personal safety of women and girls.
My debut children’s picture book, The Power of Whatever, will be published by Carlsen Publishing, out fall 2024.
- Winner, Best Screenplay - Holly Shorts Film Festival
- Winner, Best Film – Paris International Film Festival
