When you're the bastard love-child of a southern beauty queen and washed-up soap actor, you've got it all: romance, drama, mystery. Action follows...
C.J. writes about families who must transform themselves in order to transform the world.
His happy place: tending his ever-growing garden with his wife and son.
C.J. combines blue-collar authenticity with creative expertise, drawing on real-world experience to inform his storytelling. As a UCLA-educated screenwriter, he shines a light on lesser-known worlds and communities, crafting narratives with commercial appeal, intriguing loglines, and compelling plots that stand out with originality while remaining market-viable. His diverse background spans manual labor and corporate roles, alongside collaborations with studios like Buzzfeed and Digital Domain. Crossing genres and formats, his work connects cultural touchpoints with emotional resonance. This unique blend of hands-on experience and industry knowledge enables him to create authentic stories that resonate with broad and diverse audiences. He is available for representation and would be a great addition to any writers' rooms.
