I have written three scripts for film.  Two are romantic comedies, one is a drama/action script.  I also have three Reality TV ideas that are seriously being considered at this time.  I took acting classes with Juli-Ann Kay who is a prominent casting agent in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.   I did this to help my scriptwriting.  I was an extra on five sets, for three films to see how scripts are brought to life.  I am a member of the Hamilton Film Community — Creative Exchange.  I am a member of the Ancaster Film Fest (related to Toronto International Film Festival TIFF) I love film.
