TELEVISION PILOTS
When thinking of every form of visual media, television is the place that excites me most. I have a plethora of Latino-centered stories to tell, but I do not see many other Latino series existing within the one-hour television drama world. I hope to change that – that’s the exciting part. My personal taste/inspiration ranges from Succession to The White Lotus to The Bear.
