Writer Director Producer

I'm Izzy, a writer and producer based between Los Angeles and London. Crafting fantasy worlds for a decade and counting. I’ve pitched, written, coached, directed and delivered branded, commercial, and B2B spots. In my spare time, I write and direct comedies with women at the center of the narrative. My work has garnered laurels from Sundance, SXSW and Vimeo and has been acquired by Amazon. Stories fuel my life. I’d love to tell yours.

A jazz enthusiast, etymology nut and lover of all cheeses. (Except blue)
