I was working as a designer for Microsoft until recently. I quit about two weeks ago because I needed a change, I worked with the Xbox team for three years and now I'm going back to school in January. A master's degree in screenwriting.

I'd love a job with Microsoft...

Have you written any screenplays?

Nothing too big, I worked with some of the writing teams at Fox, they were doing a couple of TV series and that was fun. That was a long time ago, though, long before I was hired at Microsoft.

The master's degree sounds like fun, though!

And why would you like to work for Microsoft? I'm curious!

You can't go wrong with continuing your education.

No, haha. Although I used to love 24 back when it was good (seasons 1 - 3, in my opinion). No, I worked with the writing teams of Boston Public (the last season) and Prison Break (season 1). And I didn't actually write any episodes; I just was part of a brainstorming team which worked directly with the writers. It was a lot of fun!
