Experience

Leo has been passionate about films and TV from a very young age. He was influenced by the medium of television early on, drafting TV show bibles before he was old enough to go to the movies by himself. He has been with Static Media since 2021, and has written features for sites including Looper, SlashFilm, and TVLine, as well as reviews and longform articles for the independent film site, The Solute. As a writer for TVLine, he particularly loves writing about movies from varied eras and nationalities, film and TV animation, golden-age network sitcoms of the 2000s and early 2010s, and dramatic shows like "The Leftovers".
