Original TV Pilot
Homicidal

Original Feature Screenplay
Flying Blind
While faking being blind to get preferential seating on an airplane, Marcus ends up sitting next to an actual blind woman. When the two hit it off, Marcus has to continue faking his disability to keep his chances with her alive.
A comedy that proves that love is (sort-of) blind. Yes, I just wrote that. Deal with it.
