A behind the scenes peek into our space day on a commercial for FOMO w/ director @tjastone @storyandscience_ and an incredible team to make it all happen. Extremely grateful for everyone who’s been apart of this and those who’ve support outside. Thank you for this edit @mmmarinator 🤙🏾 I loved the energy everyone put out on set and the nostalgia encompassed in this edit. (production credits on the previous 2 posts)

Disorderly Baseball Vol. II 🙌🏽 This game definitely made the history books. Growing from @phelleston and I playing catch to me and @photodumpsarestupid having to figure out how to play a game with 80+ people! Be on the look out for da invites, it needs to double that for future games. I love community hang outs and bringing everyone together. Especially mixing friends from all different industries to drink, snack and play a bad game of baseball! Impossible to tag everyone, much love! ❤️ More games to hit a park near you!

This is a delayed post, but as many of you know, I worked on my first short film last year. I didn't have the opportunity to attend film school, so this was an exciting yet humbling experience for me, particularly as a second-career filmmaker in her thirties. But it's never too late to get started on your passion. And with that - we need your help to get us past the finish line. We were able to shoot roughly 90% of the film and are looking for additional donations so we can complete She Said, Yes this year. We have some talented folks attached to this project, and it helps bring additional work to the Bay Area film community. Please help support my film, and if you know of anyone who would love to donate or become an Executive Producer, please check out our fiscal sponsorship link in my bio. Donate today for a tax-deductible write-off! #indiefilm #womeninfilm #bayareafilm
