Who is
she?

Roma Murphy was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, but she smiled too much to survive there for long. She decided to move to Los Angeles, where people told her that her sunny personality would match the weather, but her first few years were cloudy and grey so she's pretty sure they lied (though at least she got a BFA in Screenwriting from USC out of it!).  Since graduating into a pandemic, Roma has written for Disney TV Animation, Dreamworks, an assortment of shortform comedic digital content startups, and her oatmeal-themed Instagram account. She'll happily talk to you about any of that, but she's most excited about the oats.

Roma has participated in the Disruptors Fellowship, the Hillman Grad Mentorship Lab, the Disability Belongs Summer Entertainment Lab, and the Inevitable Collective. These fellowships have encouraged her belief that she can use TV writing to make the world a better place (and fueled her denial of the fact that, as a comedy writer, she will probably make it worse).
