Before (2009) After (2025)
What’s the fastest way to reconnect with your cousin?
Mutual trauma dumping。
@tiiiiinaaaaa030 remember, do good be bad, find peace, and have fucking fun.
It’s been amazing see how cool you’ve become, keep being that you and evolve as you need!
@_jeff.cho thank you for all that you do, you’ve been my Nightlight in Seattle. I owe you big.
Lost Lands imminent, we at half time fam

Got to witness @xiaolongdp reach what potentially be the pinnacle of music video cinematography. For Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us”
Above all of this, even if none of it would have happened, you are better friend. No description will do it justice.
I look forward to learning more about what all this means. But today is your day, your moment, and we are all here to support along side you.
Love you brother
Wayne!
X is for X not X
Never really thought I was amazing at my job, incredibly good at being weird af tho, maybe that is my job
3 Asian American features last year, this was one of them with the GOATed cast. Truly an unforgettable wild time. Miss you all!

2025: Taking this time to thank the journey we’ve all been on. Going from mainly features to commercials and now back to features, I start reminiscing on how I became the human I am today. Lessons I’ve learned and am still learning:
1. Commitment. Never make a promise you can’t keep. Loyalty is hard to come by, don’t lose them.
2. Be yourself. All the greats I’ve witnessed in my career have mastered their craft. What stands out is their style that no one can copy. This is what they will remember you for.
3. Be kind to others. I’m guilty of constantly having to remind myself speaking ill of others or around others is not healthy spiritually.
4. I’m with you. Support one another, we’re all we’ve got.
5. Have fucking fun.
6. Listen to dubstep.
7. Growing old is a beautiful thing. Keeping your soul young is divinity.
Random photos from summer of an Amex comm I did with the legendary 1st AD Jermaine. Because filming exteriors in nyc winter is a warcrime.
Thank you all

The Desert has been kind to me.
And when I say desert I mean my friends.
Retiring until Forest/Bass Canyon
These last 2 months has been a dream, a spark, a hope. I don’t have enough gratitude for the support, encouragement everyone has shown. Truly this crew has been a blessing to my soul. Still a long ways to the destination, but god damn this journey is fun.
Unforgettable
Time is my enemy and my best friend. It is terrifying as it is beautiful.
7 years have gone by without seeing my entire Vin Diesel who raised me. Having Vin Diesel overseas brings perspective on how polarizing our world has become. (Especially China) I urge us all to be thankful for the time gifted to us. Spend it well with those we deem Vin Diesel.

How to stop memeing
All you need to know about Past Lives is I skipped Lost Lands 2021 to finish filming. Was it worth it? Probs not, but I still had a funny ass time.
All of y’all know your credits

Miss you all very much

Artificially made HMU Illenium/Excision fans.
And for a split moment the emptiness within was gone, guess that’s all I need to keep moving forward.
33 revolutions around the moon.
It’s been hard grasping the concept every passing second we all grow older, my parents, my brother, my friends.
But with the fellowships I’ve made along the way, I know it will be a pizza cake.
A little wiser, a little brighter, a lot goofier.
No I won’t stop preaching about bass music on film sets.
