Writing Awards

1987 - Lincoln High School Creative Writing Award

I won the creative writing contest hosted by my high school for a fantasy novella I wrote about Barbarians and Swords. Please don't ever ask to see it. It was OK for a teenager but otherwise cringe worthy.

1995 - Duquesne University Premiere Performances Playwriting Contest

I won the playwriting contest with my one act, Imaginary Exits. This was about a young man unable to deal with growing up whose imagination takes form in his apartment and can't leave. This was performed by the Duquesne Red Masquers as part of their one act festival.

2017 - Selected to Appear in Fractured Fairy Tales

My short play, The Princess and the Great Gold Dragon was selected to appear with two other short plays at the Avenue Theatre in Rochester as part of the RACT Theatre Productions Fractured Fairy Tales.

2018 - Selected to Appear in Fractured Fairy Tales, Volume 2

The Many Wives of Bluebeard, a sequel to The Princess and the Great Gold Dragon, was selected to appear with four other short plays at the Avenue Theatre in Rochester as part of the RACT Theatre Productions Fractured Fairy Tales, Volume 2.
