I am a licensed Social Worker with more than three-decades of experience in the field. I decided half-way through my journey to step outside of my box by creating and sharing real stories through playwriting, screenwriting, film, acting and producing independent projects.
This is when I received training through the Acting Studio and Jacob Krueger Studio both in New York. “Writing is a cathartic healing that allows me to share real-life experiences for the world to see.”
I created this company as an independent filmmaker because I want to help you build the skills that you need to excel in your business, profession, or agency, by immersing yourself in simulated real-world scenarios.
Work With Sheila
As a child I won my first Martin Luther King Jr. writing contest. I was so nervous as I walked down the long aisle of the auditorium to the stage to receive my award. I think this is when I thought to myself, “wow, maybe you have found your career path.” Life took me on a different journey into Social Work, but then I came full-circle, back to my passion.
As a Social Worker, independent filmmaker, screenwriter and playwright, I have incorporated the arts to help others understand diverse populations and real-world events. Bringing characters to life by lifting their circumstances from the page, on film or on stage is a fascinating experience!
