WHEN JILLIAN’S NOT WRITING

Award Winning Filmmaker

When Jillian was growing up, reading and writing was her sanctuary, and still is to this day. She could disappear into a whole different world for hours. Jillian wanted to make that happen for other people too by becoming a filmmaker. Using her gifts and talent as a writer, she developed her skills over the years through college and workshops to include becoming a writer and director. 



Jillian got her start in the film industry when she was an intern on Spike Lee’s movie Malcolm X, while she worked as a reporter for the Wall Street Journal newspaper. She eventually gave up her journalism career to focus on filmmaking. 

Vegan Athlete

Jillian started training in martial arts when she was twelve. Over the years, she earned two black belts, one in Tae Kwon Do, the other in Wing Chun. Today, as a vegan athlete, she trains in boxing and mixed martial arts, along with weightlifting, high intensity interval training, cardio conditioning, yoga, and meditation. Every book or movie she writes, directs and/or produces has boxing or martial arts included. She also utilizes her vast experience and knowledge to work as a fight choreographer on her movies.
