Shanice Williamson
Born in Queens, New York and raised between Queens and Irving, TX, I consider myself a cultural shapeshifter-type of writer. By age 18, I'd already worked for Jamaica Savings Bank, Ernst & Young, and GTE (now Verizon). A recovering Paralegal, I left a nearly 20-year legal career to become a freelance production assistant in the Atlanta film industry. In 2014, I wrote, directed and produced Waiting Room, a dramatic short film about abortion which screened at the International Black Women’s Film Festival and Kingdomwood International Film Festival. The short is currently streaming on Amazon. I also wrote two pilots which advanced to the second round of Sundance’s Episodics Lab and Sundance|YouTube New Voices Lab. I live, work, play and create fictional universes in the Metro Atlanta area with my husband and two sons.
Always eager to learn more about the craft of TV Writing, I've taken acting classes to help write better characters. If you want a giggle or two, check out my monologue videos below.
I'm blessed to work as a freelancer in the film and television industry, working in the Art Department and dabbling in the Accounting Department when they let me.
