Last week I left the country for the first time to circumvent Iceland with three of the loveliest expeditionaries you could ever meet.
I was astounded by the process of their natural hot springs, and by the processed nature of their delicious hot dogs. 🤌🏾
Saw the Northern Lights, swam in a frozen lake, ate lamb, reindeer, and shark, and never saw a single police officer.

Family Ties is a short film created when a group of friends decided to challenge themselves one weekend. It was written on one day and shot the following day. Editing, however, took longer than expected lol.
Family Ties is about two brothers who have a real conversation after an unfortunate situation.

Flew to the sunshine state for the first time in over a decade for the @americanblackfilmfestival with my boys and started this summer off right!!!
Eye-opening to see and meet so many incredible Black filmmakers at all levels. Heart-warming to know I have 4 so close to me. 🤞🏾Until next year fellas! 🕺🏾
(I was hitting that dance too but the cameras weren’t on)
Not usually one to post about my 9-5, but yesterday I was named Associate of the Year. I came into my job terrified with no experience in the industry. High expectations and little time to get up to speed. (This is by far the reason you haven’t heard much from me this year 😂)
This time last year I was miserable working retail, moonlighting as a DoorDash driver on my bike, in the cold. Today, I somehow have business cards that say “Video Production Coordinator”.
I’m grateful to work at a place that encourages my creativity and has never asked me to change. I’m grateful to be a part of a team that has taught me so much. I’m proud of me. Thank you for the recognition 🥳 @rosewoodthecarlyle
What started as a random email to @beliefnyc asking if they had any job openings turned into them inviting me to model their latest collection 😵extremely grateful to start the year modeling for my favorite brand. 🙏🏾 All their newest stuff is available on their site and in-store.
Needed to shoutout to my best bro @gadget.mov on his birthday. I’ve never met someone who had such a profound impact on my life in such a short span of time. Meeting you and the rest of @team.colorway literally changed my life. Hope to keep gaming and geeking out with you “until my enemies are destroyed”. 😤🤝
Last year for my birthday week I took photos on a disposable camera. I thought it would be fun to develop them a year later and look back. These are those photos. 🙂
