This weekend was a whirlwind. My first time in NYC, seeing our film LAST TOUR HOME premiere at the SoHo International Film Festival, spending time with my family and friends who came out to support…what a privilege. I’ll be processing this one for a while.
I want to say a massive thank you to Baylee Toney and Myles Clohessy of @firesidefilmco for the opportunity to act in this story, to my mom and pops for making the trek from Mississippi for this occasion, to my amazing friend and manager @theionamaclean for always giving so much of herself for her artists, to one of my closest friends @toridanner for flying to New York to surprise me, to a brother @lukecharlesstafford for literally wrapping the filming of his own movie and rushing to make it to the screening of mine, to @simmisingh for her friendship and support, and to all who have encouraged and supported me along this journey. It truly means the world!
Polaroids from Sophia Tatum’s (@sophia_tatum ) new series “Uncommitted Crimes.” Big thanks to Alex Barlas (@alexbarlascdf ) for the invite to work in this project, anytime I get to wear a cowboy hat for a shoot, I’m game yeehaw
This Spring, I had the opportunity to chat with the crew over at @shoutoutlaofficial . We covered all things from risk, campfires, callings, and coffee. In miraculous form, I managed to somehow not talk about wild turkeys…

Man, what a ride! We wrapped up filming our movie this week, and it will remain an experience that will be burned into my heart and mind.
Congratulations to the incredible cast and crew, it was truly an honor to work along side you guys!
