Friends! My film #Mermaid won #BestHorror at Oscar/BAFTA qualifying LA Shorts International film Festival! I canāt believe it! This was my second short as a writer/director/actor but my first time composing the score & I just feel so seen. This #filmfestival was such a lovely experience for me. The films were top notch and I got to meet a bunch of new talented filmmaker friends who were all so special and kind. It was an affirming reminder that there are such lovely artists out that there I havenāt even met yet, whose work is inspiring and needs to be seen and supported and celebrated! I was in awe of their films. Iām so grateful to @lashortsfest for including me, and I just feel so honored to be part of a film festival that takes such special care of their programming. Iām still strategizing the best way to release my film so stay tuned. For now, Iām just so grateful that I was able to make it to this festival. BRAVO TEAM! And special shout out some of the special films in my block that I hope you can see soon! @therealjonvaljon made the HILARIOUS @donotupdate.film@anotherdanegan won BEST SCIFI for the iconic #dreammachine, and @iamtashann directed the GORGEOUS @meet_nadine
For at least the first 7 years of my career, If there was a show about a family I knew I wouldnāt be able to audition for it. The family wouldnāt look like me, so it wasnāt an option. I couldnāt be the mom, or the daughter or the sister. Similarly I couldnāt audition for shows that took place before the 1970ās because a mixed race character would have looked historically out of place. I feel so honored to lead @trueliescbs with @stevehowey with a family that looks like the diverse home I grew up in, and Iām so excited for you to watch our loving and silly family on TV. Big hugs.
Thanks to @character.media and the @unforgettablegala for letting me share.

Took some pics of my baby Mils today and couldnāt pick the best one because he is perfect. Heās so sweet and kind and empathetic and friendly. Today he played with his human children friends, and also some kids at the park. He loves to sing and he is also a clown and a cuddler. (His sister Lumi is also perfect but she was napping and charges me for pics because she got famous on instagram during her time as a pandemic puppy)
Hereās a clue as to what itās about! š š
Right AND wrong guesses for the subject of my short story series welcome in the comments! Canāt wait to share!

Happy #internationalwomensday. Women are the greatest creatures and the world deserves a #matriarchy. I truly believe that the patriarchy hurts everyone and a matriarchy would care for all.
In other news, I love being a woman and I love being an artists. Please enjoy this clip from my new project.
