I meant to post this on Friday the 13th, but the weekend got the better of me. A while back I had the pleasure of working with Adrienne King, and she was genuinely one of the most pleasant, grounded people you could hope to share a set with. At one point I asked her, “You know what my favorite thing about Alice Hardy is — and it's what separates you from a Laurie Strode, for example?” She looked at me, curious. I said, “You didn’t need Dr. Loomis to come in and finish the job. You cut Pamela Voorhees’ head off your goddamn self.” She smiled and said, “You’re damn right.” The quintessential final girl. Absolute class. #FridayThe13th

Been catching up on posts and realized this one deserves a permanent spot. Finalist for Best Production Design at the UK Film Awards for Love and Taxes. Grateful for the team, the opportunity, and the weird path that got me here. #productiondesign #artdept #ukfilmawards #indiefilm #loveandtaxesmovie

Wish I could’ve posted this sooner (and I promise I’m gonna get better about updates). TACO TUESDAY – 🌮short action film I production designed. Had an absolute blast working with @director.in.training and the whole team on this one. Grateful to be part of something this fun and gnarly. The trailer’s live now — check it out over at @director.in.training #productiondesign #shortfilm #artdept #indiefilm #action

Found myself going through my old work from my Miami days, and it really got me thinking, "Why has it taken so long for me to get back in the director's chair?" Truth is, a lot of self-doubt. It's an incredibly deep ocean of talented people who all want the same thing. Plus, getting caught up in the mania of working on set distracted me from my original goal when I moved here. Don't get me wrong, I love working on set, but the time spent stuck at home during the strike got me back to focusing on myself—confidence, health, career, stuff like that. It ended up with me back to writing, and I forgot how much I missed it. Now, I'm just itching to get back in the director's chair. Anybody want to make a couple of shorts over the summer? 🎬

kind of a cool feeling to be at the video store, and suddenly spot something I worked on sitting on the shelf.

Nothing like working 12 hrs in a cramped office with the A/C locked at 89° to build a bond. gonna miss working with y'all.

Instagram made a reel from my stories, and it was actually really sweet to look back at my growth from day 1 as an Art PA to a Set Decorator.
