hi, it’s ruth. nice to meet you :)

i’m a writer and filmmaker based in los angeles. i was born in palo alto, grew up in st. paul, and went to wellesley college in massachusetts. 


i used to write about music and work in the music industry before focusing all my attention on screenwriting and filmmaking. now I like to write stories about murders, dead bodies, yearning,  scary things, sad things, bittersweet things, all at once.  

my screenwriting has been recognized by slamdance, black list/women in film, NRDC, stowe story labs, the cinestory foundation, script pipeline, screencraft, the dead list...
