While Adrian was attending the University of New Orleans completing the program for his Master of Fine Arts in Film Directing, he realized he needed someone to write the screenplays that he planned to direct. He felt he had the vision to capture his ideas and concepts on film but needed the words. After approaching several writers that were overwhelmed with their own studies, Adrian was forced to take on the task himself. He delved into screenwriting classes for the first time and realized if he wanted to share these stories he needed to put ink to paper. After much encouragement from his screenwriting professors Adrian continued to write. He is currently an active member of the Coronet Writers Lab.
