PROJECT #2 PREVIEW ✨
A sneak peek at the second Right to Remain film project called “We Remain Sovereign”
This upcoming animated short explores how colonial systems in the U.S. impact Native identity, land, movement. This project aims to raise awareness about the unconstitutional targeting of native communities and to educate Native communities about the forms of tribal identification to carry when interacting with ICE.
We were here before borders. Borders crossed us. We are still here.

I'm so happy with all of the places this film has taken me, I feel so grateful for all of the opportunities I have gotten to meet so many great filmmakers.

Wanted to give a huge huge huge thank you to everyone who worked on Even Still, on Wednesday we won runner up for best student film at the Minnesota electronic theater! Super grateful to everybody who made this film possible.
Come to @mixnmashfest tomorrow if you are able- it and some other great films will be screening there
Hi! here's a quick progression reel and some more film festivals my thesis film got into! so grateful to have been showed at TAF and OFN.
If you are able, I'd highly encourage going to the Minnesota Electronic Theater on December 4th and Squish Movie Camp on June 1st if you are in the area.
for those who are wondering when I will make Even Still available publicly, I wasn't expecting the amazing reception this film has gotten, so I will be holding onto it a little bit longer so I can submit it to some more festivals. once I have a more solid release date I will let y'all know. Thank you all so much!
A little animation I made last night that I think turned out super well. I’ve been wanting to practice backgrounds more lately. Might use it in the background of something soon :)
