In Their Own Words

I want students to use every tool they have at their disposal during the creative process—let’s learn the rules so that you can make informed decisions about how and when to break them. The writing process is about making a mess, and then building that mess into a structure that can deliver the greatest impact, the best way you know how. We’re learning to create and support meaning, and then deliver that meaning to the world.

I've collaborated with all types of writers, artists, producers, and presenters to create what I believe to be meaningful—and, in some cases, commercially successful—art. I'd like to bring my experiences, whether they be from touring or in the studio, to my students directly. I'm in the field now, and I don't hold back on the truth of our business and the creative process as it stands in our industry today, and into the future.
