2025 was loud, expensive, and deeply formative — and honestly, the year I’m most grateful for.
I lost a ridiculous amount of money and learned faster than ever. Worked on a lot, turned down just as much, and finally trusted my instincts enough to walk away.
I stepped fully into my anti-hero era — unapologetic, self-aware, choosing the plot every time.
I experimented, pivoted, trashed ideas, and rebuilt, making sure I was having fun. Spoiled myself without guilt, stopped auditioning for my own life, and took the lead role.
I added structure to my chaos, celebrated wins, and learned that discipline can still have vibes.
I fell in love, let it be fun, and let it meet me where I am.
And through it all, I was held by the best people... We stressed each other out. We went through wild shit. But ending the year knowing we won? That’s something I won’t trade for anything.
Still anti-hero. Still evolving. Still grateful. ♥️😊
A time was had at Jeddah. The Red Sea International Film Festival 2025 was an experience. Brilliant storytellers. Great vibes. Good people. 💃🍾
A huge Thank you to Queen @dorinaamina for making this happen and bringing together the best mentors. A big shout out to @applesayraaa@propagandin and the entire team at ACTV, AFS and USC for being the best.

Cue the music. Zoom in. It’s my birthday!!!🥳🎉 😎
Today, I celebrate me and the plot twists I didn’t see coming (but low-key prayed for). Grateful for love, growth, and the people who make this ride so sweet.
Big laughs, big love, and even bigger vibes ahead. 🥂🎉 ✌🏽
