Janet Hyojo Oh (she/her) is a Korean American producer and screenwriter based in NYC, recognized for her commitment to diverse and inclusive storytelling. Writing became a personal refuge during a formative year spent in South Korea, deeply shaping her voice and perspective. Her work has been featured in festivals such as Flickers' Rhode Island Film Festival, New York Shorts International Film Festival, and Austin Short Film Festival. Dedicated to bridging cultural divides, Janet's work aims to inspire positive change by celebrating underrepresented voices and unique perspectives.​

She recently completed the JHRTS NY Writers Room Program, an intensive, simulated writers' room experience where she was one of six writers selected to adapt Escape from New York into a nine-episode series. As a lifelong fan of Doctor Who, Janet dreams of one day becoming a showrunner and creating impactful series that champion inclusivity at every level.
