High-energy, story-driven, and subversively satirical. As a veteran entertainment executive and university professor, I blend Hollywood industry rigor with razor-sharp cultural commentary. Don't expect dry, passive lectures as I treat every session like an interactive writers' room and summit on cultural analysis. Through real-world case studies, sharp humor, and unfiltered industry insight, I challenge students to break through corporate compliance, question gatekeepers, and take direct ownership of their creative narratives.
