In January, I went to Rio de Janeiro and started filming my first documentary.
It follows a group of young dreamers — who were my students 20 years ago — now telling their own stories from within the favela they call home.
My path into filmmaking hasn’t been linear, but that’s what’s led me here — to this story. Independent filmmaking creates space for voices that don’t always get heard, but it takes real support to bring them to life.
We’re in the final days of funding this first phase.

Some BTS from the first part of our shoot. This project has been 20 years in the making. I first moved to Rio when I was 18. What was supposed to be 6 months as an English teacher became 3 years that became 20 years of friendships that has now become this film. None of this would have been possible without my team and collaborators who showed up beyond anything I could have imagined. Thank you to the best of the best…@cont4ct@__cchaves@cbassmofam@julianajunto@bruna_producao@tahirybah@melcardosofer@fernandadamattapereira@dudufalcaodarocha@bravocameras .
Let the journey continue!

We launched in 2022… and forgot to tell anyone 😌
Now stepping into year three, @evrydydrmr is still grounded in the same intention we began with: creating experiences that feel honest, immersive, and deeply human.
From creative direction and commissioning to experiential production and wellness-centered programming, the last two years have been about building spaces where art, culture, and care can exist together.
Grateful for the collaborators, clients, and moments that shaped us and excited to keep building into 2026 🤍

This is a 90-minute creative breath class to pause, quiet the mind, tap into the senses, and learn how to trust our creative being by connecting with our life force energy, our breath.
As we move into the slower rhythm of winter, this guided breathwork session invites you to ground, restore, and reconnect with your inner calm. Through intentional breathing techniques, we’ll release tension, strengthen presence, and cultivate ease-creating space to settle deeply into the season with warmth and clarity.
This class is open to all levels, whether you are brand new to breathwork or already have a practice. Come and be in community with others and take a moment for yourself.
