Felicia Ho

Walk Up

2020 Screenwriting Contest - Quarterfinalist

Arranged

2019 First Look Project - Winner (TV (Hour))

Felicia Ho was born and raised in the San Francisco East Bay to Taiwanese-immigrant parents. After high school, Felicia received a scholarship to study music therapy in college but, instead, found her way to USC’s School of Cinematic Arts where she was able to pursue her first great love: visual storytelling. After graduating in 2014, she entertained a brief stint as a card-counter before heading back to Los Angeles, where she worked in various assistant roles before being selected as a writer in Ron Howard & Brian Grazer’s Imagine Impact writing accelerator in 2019. There, she developed ARRANGED, a comedic TV series about a Chinese-American social climber who attempts to scheme her way into an arranged marriage. The script won 2019’s Script Pipeline First Look TV Screenwriting contest, and placed within the 2019 Launch Pad Pilot Competition. In the same year, her possession-horror feature WALK UP, which tracks the journey of recovery for a domestic abuse survivor, was a finalist in numerous screenplay competitions, including the ScreenCraft Horror Feature, and won first runner-up in the New Orleans Film Festival Feature Screenplay Competition. WALK UP now has Sonoya Mizuno attached to star. Felicia most recently was a staff writer on GREMLINS for HBO/Amblin and is writing the KUNG FU PANDA holiday special for Netflix/Dreamworks.
