"You're Looking Big Tonight Moon" Some stills and a clip from a recent music video with @_santosh.sharma_ This was my first time filming on a roof at night and was surprised by how well the roof itself served as a great backdrop for colored light Performance and Recording: @_santosh.sharma_ Original Composition: @jakeshermanwooo Production Assistant: @alex.m.pelletier

“Dindi / I Didn’t Know” A music video with @avayaghmaie shot in March of this year. The goal with this one was to show the contrasting sides of a connection as played by twins. The video is set to the tunes “Dindi” and “I Didn’t Know What Time It Was” with a scene connecting them in the middle. A huge thank you to all that worked on this and a separate thank you for braving the cold in Fort Tryon park when we shot the outdoors scenes. Available now through the site in my bio.

While living in Seattle in 2023, I wrote, produced, and shot my very first short film entitled “Mom’s Summer Haircut”. It was an incredibly memorable three days of making it and although it certainly feels like it’s my first movie, I’m still very proud of what came out of that first effort. In the coming weeks and months, I’ll be releasing some new projects made here in NYC but felt that it would be right to start with this one and share it publicly for the first time (you can see it on the site linked in my bio). Thank you so much to all those who helped make this / gave me feedback and be on the lookout for new projects to come!
