​
Ellie's Perk, is a short comedy I wrote about Ellie, a woman, who's passion for coffee keeps getting in the way of her romantic relationships.
I play Ellie , the quirky coffee addict, directed by Kevin Guzewich, which recently screened at the Greater Lehigh Valley Film Festival in PA Feb 29, 2020.
I am excited to announce that I will be expanding Ellie's Perk into a Feature Film. Ellie's Perk Behind The Steam takes place after covid and brings back some of the old characters from the first pilot episode and new characters to mix up the blend.
Ellie's Perk, has received numerous accolades, won in festivals and continues to get a huge amount of support.
