Creative Director / Writer

About

 

Hi. I'm Demian.

 I’m a writer, creative director, screenwriter, and podcast producer based in Oakland, California.

I write constantly. Fiction. Screenplays. Ads. And countless lists painstakingly organized in a network of Google Docs.

I wrote this for McSweeney’s: “Wetzel’s Pretzels, You Will Not Be Spared from our Millennial Bloodlust”.

I wrote these for a 48-hour screenplay competition: NYC Midnight Short Screenplay Challenge Winner 2017

And I wrote all this on my desk while losing my mind in grad school 👇🏽.
