Chris Todd’s writing resume 

This is certainly not meant to wow my way into a job. This is meant to give a sense of my professionalism, my ability to write for established shows, and flexibility to work across genres and mediums–even if comedy is my wheelhouse. I love television, I’m a self-proclaimed comedy nerd, and my goal is to be staffed in a room full of experienced writers who intimidate me into being better.
