RACHAEL KELECHI CAULKER

 
 

Daughter of West African parents, USC Marshall School of Business, Cinematic Arts minor grad, and self-proclaimed TV addict, Rachael has worked at companies including WME and Fabel Entertainment. She recently received her TV writing certificate from UCLA Extension.

ISA's Top 25 Screenwriters to Watch in 2023. Her psychological horror pilot, Check Out Time was ISA’s 2021 Horror/Thriller Grand Prize Winner, and was ranked in the top 5th percentile by WeScreenplay. Her pilot Save Crenshaw Save The World was a quarterfinalist in ScreenCraft’s 2021 Sci-Fi & Fantasy Competition. In 2020, she was selected to be a part of Marcus Gardley’s TV Writing Intensive. A highly competitive writers workshop for which nine emerging writers of color were selected. Her Killing Eve spec “Death By Kimchi” was a top 10 finalist in the 2020 UCLA Extension Television Spec Writing Competition. She looks forward to bringing all things sci-fi, horror, fantasy & just plain weird to TV screens.

Rachael’s writing explores themes of trauma, tech, and otherness. Through story, she excavates the dark shadowy crevices of the mind, in an effort to bring that darkness into the light.

When she's not typing up the next Emmy sweeper, you can find Rachael hiking Runyon Canyon with her shepherd-mix Foxy, reading books on metaphysics, or blasting the Bad Brains while going 71 mph in the speed lane.
