THE LIST

Sherean D. Jones is a comedy writer from North Philly, so she's halfway decent at parallel parking but a master at roasting (with love). She writes women-led, edgy comedies about messy Black girls, usually in recovery from a crash-out, who are overlooked and underestimated but always on the brink of something big. During her time at USC, Sherean became an inaugural fellow of the Tribe Writing Fellowship and a 2022 fellow of Black Boy Writes and Black Girls Writes Mentorship Initiative. Also, during her tenure Sherean landed her first staff writing job on A La Carté (Allblk), and upon graduation Sherean became a staff writer for Season 3 of Netflix's Survival of The Thickest.
