I earned my MFA in Film Directing from the American Film Institute and work as a freelance director, producer and editor as well as teach filmmaking at UCLA Extension and Cal State University East Bay. My screenplays have won awards at Broad Humor and Female Eye film festivals; I was a second rounder in Austin Film Festival and a Sundance Screenwriter Lab finalist. Kathleen Turner performed in a staged reading of my feature script What Do You Thinx of Madeline Minx?
Goal = Pop Star is an autobiographical documentary exploration of my multifaceted relationship with my mother. In the midst of a record release tour, my record label drops me and I return to my childhood home in Ann Arbor to take a job as my mother’s real estate assistant where I struggle to come to terms with my mom’s hypercritical nature which likely sent me on my pop star odyssey in the first place.
How to survive your mother? Answer, don't let her hear your new song lyrics. My mom was not happy back in the day with my "Sushi" song and did NOT approve of our performance at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco.
My mom is my biggest critic and creative muse. She was an actress and singer in college but put that part of herself away when she got married and started a family. I've been documenting my relationship with her for many years in various forms - film, video, writings, audio recordings, songs.
