Curricula and learning goals that are woven seamlessly into properties are the most meaningful and enjoyable to consume. When writing curriculum, I identify and suggest possible curricular areas, and together we organically integrate what works into your project. Curriculum is highly varied, ranging from light touch to standards-aligned, and highly dependent on the medium. I can help you with all of the above to achieve your intended learning outcomes.

Content travels widely. Given my background working in educational contexts around the world, I’m specially equipped to set your property up for success both at home and abroad. This includes providing cultural, historical, and political notes on characters, environments, and other culturally significant elements (as well as partnering with subject matter experts). I can also help you consider localization and developing bilingual content.

Kids should be at the heart of kids content 💖! I help you understand your audience and the current state of the kids media market (with a special eye towards global trends). Whether from the beginning (bible or pitch development). to scripting, storyboard or animatic review, I’m able to provide insight into what kids and families think about your idea. My specialty is content development across multiple platforms and mediums (videos, interactive games, caregiver-facing content, etc.) - meeting kids and families wherever they are!

Developing and executing new, engaging properties necessitates successful collaboration across a range of disciplines. Consider including workshops for team building, cross-cultural collaboration, creative brainstorming, as well as integrating mindfulness and well-being into creative work.
