As the Design Manager at @blackstarfest , I have the privilege and responsibility of executing our visual presentation. I’m excited to share some lifestyle shots I captured for @seen_journal Issue 009 and to let you all know that I’ll be photographing our contributors’ roundtable in LA next week. You’ll find more details at the end of the carousel, including the event graphic I designed myself! It’s going to be an amazing evening with @darolkae_ , @jennyyangtv , @mayasymonecade , and Seen’s editor-in-chief @heidi_saman . Can’t wait to see some of the LA homies at @reparations.club ! ✨

Big thanks to @maorikarmael , @niseecup , and @louis.massiah for asking me to design the official film poster! I had the privilege of attending the @tcb_doc premiere at @blackstarfest this year, and I left that screening feeling so reinvigorated and inspired.
Don’t miss the screening in LA, hope to see some of y’all there!

Excited to share the logo and merch I designed for Philly drag icon, community advocate, and @rupaulsdragrace Season 18 contestant @mandyy.mango ! 🥭✨
I met Mandy in 2024 through @b.dez96 while they were both working in HIV prevention. Beyond her charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent, her work as a nurse and commitment to queer community care made this project an easy “yes”. The merch features an illustrated nurse look by tattoo artist and illustrator @aimieferreiratattoos .

Feeling so grateful and blessed to work with such brilliant, caring people, and even more grateful that I get to call them mentors, colleagues, and friends.
