Truck driver. Writer. Builder of grounded stories.
Different lanes. One voice.
Lonehawk is the name I work under. The road is where most of this started. Everything here; the writing, the workshops, the films... lives somewhere between a logbook, a notebook, and a camera pointed at the parts of trucking most people never see.
I’m a working truck driver and a writer who cares a lot about two things: keeping people alive on the road, and telling stories that don’t lie about what it costs.
Most of my early work came from 3 a.m. truck stops, long highway stretches, and the quiet weight people carry when no one’s watching. I’ve seen what fatigue does to a person. What grief does to a family. What pressure reveals about character. Those miles shaped my voice long before I ever formatted a screenplay.
I write stories about ordinary people under extraordinary strain; and the choices that define them.
In recent years, I’ve expanded that voice into feature screenplays and long-form television across grounded drama and contained science fiction.
My work blends commercial concepts with character-first storytelling; contained thrillers, emotionally grounded genre, and intimate dramas built for real-world production. Whether it’s a sealed pod with a ticking countdown or a father driving cross-country through grief, the through-line is the same:
Pressure reveals truth.
I’m actively building a career in film and television as a working screenwriter, seeking representation and production partners who value both market awareness and emotional depth.
The road gave me perspective. Film is where that perspective scales.
What I do now
- Write feature screenplays across drama and genre.
- Develop long-form series concepts.
- Continue publishing trucking and safety writing rooted in lived experience
- Lead workshops on fatigue, culture, and real-world accountability
- Write personal essays and poetry about mental health, grief, and the weight people carry in silence.
- Different lanes. One voice.
