Hi, my name is Joe and I am a mystery/ drama/ adventure writer with a passion for history. In fact, my love for writing historical fiction can be traced as far back as the sixth grade when I first asked, “Why? Why would a country like France gift the United States a statue?" This same childhood inquisitiveness has fueled my lifelong mission for seeking out the untold and often marginalized stories from our history books. Films and tv series have the power to inspire, educate, and entertain, and I strive to create screenplays that do just that.
Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to working with you!
