A Toronto-based produced screenwriter with impressive awards and achievements under his belt, Tommy is naturally drawn to innovative concepts and projects that feel very marketable while tackling real social issues. He tends to write about the strange and dark things that can happen in our world but isn't afraid to throw in a little comedy when necessary. If in Tommy's stories the monsters are generally human, he is able to create character studies that are relatable and universal, allowing him to write across format and genre. He is available for representation in the US and in Canada.
