Back in June, I lead the creative, content, and sound design for this experiential piece at the opening of the new Aston Martin HQ in NYC. It was a lot of fun working with the team at @invisiblenorth on this one.
Fav part was the spatialized audio component that is impossible to convey through Insta, but trust me is very loud and very lit. #3dcontent #spatialaudio #astonmartin
Take me back to Oaxaca, Puerto Escondido⦠Casa Wabi.

True story, my son was on this vacation too. š¤
Matrescence: the journey of becoming a mother: physically, emotionally, psychologically, and spiritually.
Carrying and growing little Nico inside me has been the most incredible journey of my life so far. Iāll never forget the joy of that positive test, the ultrasounds, the sweet morning kicks that woke me gently like clockwork. Nico was tender and calm in the womb, and now itās a blessing to watch him share that same sweetness earthside.
Becoming a mother is so profound, I find myself at a loss for words. Itās giving your all while trying to rediscover who you are. Itās learning that love multiplies, realizing youāve never felt such deep devotion to another being. Itās being challenged by your former self, by your need for control, and learning to surrender to something far greater.
Motherhood is a sleepy smile when you lift them from the crib, the peace found in their tiny breaths on your shoulder, the awe of seeing in their eyes that you are their safe place. Itās witnessing your partner grow into the most loving, caring father.
Motherhood is everything, and what a privilege it is to become mãe.
These stunning photos were taken by @julesville_ in Manzanita, the place where in deep meditation I felt the certainty of being ready to become a mother a few years ago.
Nico was born Labor Day. Flawless victory for the mama and papaāyou could say we are settling into parenthood nicely. Days are filled with musical moments, bilingual lessons, and love letters to nature. What a gift he is to the world.
Shoutout to the strongest, most beautiful soul @fenavilli for birthing a perfeito filho.
Feeling nostalgicāvan build 2020 to 2025āāDuskyā š
When I bought this cargo van, it still had a āBrew Drā wrap on the outside. Mid pandemic we set out to make it roadtrip worthy. We gutted it, painted it, insulated, cut windows, tinted, wired solar and electrical, laid hardwood flooring, installed sound dampening, roof rack, ceiling fans, built cabinets from scratch with a bench and hidden fridge⦠so many things.š¤¤šµāš«Honestly⦠what a pain in the ass. Thank god for YouTube. I learned so much in the process Iām getting the itch š®āšØjust thinking about the next build.
Over 5 years, Dusky has become part of the family and has seen the best of the PNW, Cali, NV, and Canadaāincluding basins, deserts, oceans, rainforests, mountains, lakes⦠šļøšļøtoo many photos to fit in the grid. I hope you all like her as much as we do. XoXo
Iām eternally grateful to @fenavilli for taking this journey with me. Our village showed up to welcome this baby boy into the world. So many people to thank for the perfect memories.
Lyrics to song I wrote/performed for the boy š¶š¼:
Hush now
Little baby
Donāt worry about the things that keep you down
Cause I heard
Something lately
Thereās magic here to turn that frown around
And all the crazy feelings that are bound to make you hurt
Will wash away in due time there is nothing to rework
Ohhh
Ill give you everything and more
Iāll give you everything I have to give
Iāll give you everything, there is
Time goes
By so quickly
You close your eyes and life is such a blur
But Your voice tells a story
A soundtrack to a movie unrehearsed
The making of a classic it wonāt need to be reworked
And make me infinitely proud Iām speechless without words
Ohhh
Ill give you everything and more
Iāll give you everything I have to give
Iāll give you everything, there is
What a night to remember! Huge shoutout to @beatrox and @circuitpdx for letting BaeWatch (yep, thatās @andynavilli and yours truly) hit the decks last night! šæāØ Weāre out here, ready to serve tunes and serve looks on the dance floor šš Stay tuned for more shows because BaeWatch is officially on duty! š¶š„
