Thank you to @levelground.co and @navamau for organizing this fellowship! I’m so excited to be included among this amazing group of filmmakers, storytellers and artists!
After screening at over a hundred festivals and garnering awards along the way @bluehrfilm is having its online premiere on Short of the Week this Thursday (Feb 5th)! Be sure to check us out!
Felt nostalgic, might delete.
October is zooming by and I looked up and realized I missed my LAversary. Seven years ago my dad and I drove cross-country in a U-Haul (he drove, I rode) staying with friends and family along the way.
It’s the longest amount of time I’ve spent anywhere since I was 13. LA still doesn’t *quite* feel like home but maybe we’ll get there with a little more time. 🙂
Thank you to everyone who reached out to wish me a Happy Birthday! I’m a week late but Leo’s celebrate all month 🦁
(Yes, even into Virgo Season; I said what I said)
In honor of my birthday month I’m pulling some of my favorite August memories from the archives:
🎂My first birthday away from home that my Grandma Hattie worked so hard to make special.
🏟️ My first birthday in NY.
🗽 My last birthday in NY.
⚾️ Ronald Acuña Jr. hitting home run 30 of his 40/70 out of Dodger Stadium.
Thanks to everyone who has been apart of these and so many wonderful memories not pictured. I can’t wait to make more with y’all! 💜
**If you’re stumped about my birthday present you can watch Emperor of Ocean Park on MGM+ this Sunday (and the next 4 Sunday’s) 🎁**
Happy Premiere Day @emperorofoceanpark ! Working on this show has been an affirming full circle moment in so many ways. Congratulations @shermanpayne and thank you for bringing me along for the ride! We hope y’all love it! ♟️
