Wow. What a whirlwind of a year.
2025 tested me in ways I didn’t expect. From challenges, setbacks, growth, and a lot of learning along the way. But despite it all, I’m proud to say we’re still standing…and more importantly, building real momentum heading into the next chapter.
So grateful for the people, projects, lessons, and quiet wins that shaped this year.
Here’s to 2026 being a year of prosperity, health, love, security, and success, for all of us!
Last night, I had the privilege of being a special guest at the @film_london and @milkteafilms networking event at Picturehouse Central.
I had the chance to speak with so many incredible people from all walks of life. From those coming from law, acting, finance, university and business backgrounds, all united by one thing…A passion for creativity and a drive to work in film and television.
I shared my journey, where I’m currently at, and what I’ve learned along the way. I hope the words I left with them will support and inspire them as they take their next steps toward achieving their goals and dreams.
Thank you to both Film London and Milktea Films for the opportunity. Feeling grateful and energised.
Stay tuned for some upcoming reveals in 2026
Thank you to @mrs_n_uzumaki for coming to the event with me. Truly grateful to have you in my life 🙏🏽
End of July - Beginning of August
Grateful for the moments and opportunities
Living life to the fullest with no regrets
How’s your summer going so far?
AND WE’RE BACK! 🎬
Reshoots for our feature film @spectrumfeaturefilm are officially underway!
We took a necessary pause to reset, reevaluate, and realign with the vision—and I’m proud to say we’re now back on track to finishing this film once and for all.
Truly grateful for my incredible team—for sticking with me through all the highs and lows. Let’s finish strong! 💫
Stepping into a new era.
Buzzing with how these new headshots came out — big love to Adam at @framed_duck_studio for the clean shots and good vibes. If you’re looking for headshots that actually feel like you, hit them up.
Appreciate the recommendation from @kalungifresh and shoutout to my bro Andre for the fresh frames — came through as always
May was a blast! And June is already kicking off 😎 Just wish the pollen would clear off! 😂
Good vibes!
Great people!
Many smiles
And productivity
Thank you all for making May a bright spot this year! Grateful for you 🙏🏽
