What a journey this has been🧡🎭

The response to OTHER PATHS TO GOD has been wonderful!

Playing Renee has been such a rewarding experience. A woman of faith, strength, humor, and contradictions, navigating grief, loyalty, and some difficult choices.

So grateful to share the stage with this incredible ensemble and bring Kelundra Smith’s beautiful storytelling to life.

Atlanta, there’s laughter, mystery, and a whole lot of heart! Come see us! 🎭🧡

📍 Horizon Theatre Company
🗓️ Playing through November 8

—————————————————————
I also wanted to share a really amazing actor moment. I had the opportunity to play Jewel in the world premiere of Kelundra Smith’s “The Wash” in 2024. I finally got my hands on the published script and got to see my name as the original Jewel. I’m forever grateful for the experience and everyone involved.

There are way too many people to thank for how far this film has come, and not enough tags available for me to add everyone. But to my entire cast and crew, thank you all so much for the time, effort, heart and support you gave this project. I truly cannot thank you all enough. Each of you believed in this piece and this team. That belief is felt through every fiber of this short film.
•
To every investor, thank you for believing in me as a filmmaker and an artist, and trusting me with your resources. They did not go to waste, I’m glad you all get to see that.
•
This short film acts as a Proof of Concept for our feature film that is in early development. So please go watch our film, rate it, and leave a review. All of those interactions will help us in our making of the full film. So if you want more? Help us give it to you!

These characters are my babies, and they’re now yours to take care of at home. Enjoy! And Mama, this one’s for you.

We’re so excited to announce that H.P.V. is an Official Selection of the 2026 @catalinafilm festival! ✨

We’ll be closing out the “Bad Ideas, Good Stories” shorts block this Saturday, September 26 at 3:00 PM at Lancer Auditorium.

Every opportunity to share this deeply personal film with a new audience means the world to us. What began as a story rooted in women’s health, fear, intimacy, shame and the things we’re often taught to suffer through quietly continues to travel and we’re so grateful for every room it enters.

Catalina Island, we’ll see you Saturday! 🏝️🤍

Saturday, September 26
3:00–5:00 PM

This week on Theatre People we are proud to sit down with the creative and producing team behind "MR.COOL: A Play in 5 Sets". In this episode, we will follow the life of the play from the beginning of its in conception, all the way through its second run at Theatrical Outfit.

Ray Masinloc is a fallen Filipino-American UFC champion who reinvents himself as the host of the hit podcast Ray of Fight, where he conducts live séances with legendary athletes. During the season finale, staged before a live audience at Arthur Ashe Stadium, Ray attempts to interview tennis icon Arthur Ashe. What begins as a spectacle becomes a deeply personal reckoning as Ashe challenges Ray to confront the stories he tells himself—and the cost of living up to the expectations of others. Through wit, vulnerability, and unexpected humor, MR. COOL asks what remains after fame fades and whether redemption is possible when we're finally forced to face the truth.

CINCINNATI… LOOK WHAT I’M BRINGING HOME WITH ME!!!

Tomorrow is a big day! We’re coming back and this time we get to bring H.P.V. home to @cindependentfilmfestival for the Opening Night screening! And waitttttt there’s more!

Literally screaming. This is my first nomination for BEST DIRECTOR, and my brilliant amazing talented leading lady @taylorpolidore is nominated for BEST ACTRESS for the beautiful, vulnerable, completely UNHINGED 😭😍performance she gave as Kaleigh.

And before the big night, I’ll be participating in Cindependent’s Deep Dive, “Moving On,” to talk about what it means to leave Cincinnati to pursue this career and how the place that raised us continues to shape the artists we’ve become.

THURSDAY 9/17
Deep Dive: Moving On | 2:15 PM
H.P.V. — “Homebodies” | 8:00 PM

There’s something surreal about leaving home with a dream and getting to come back with something you made.

Cincy, we OTW!

WHAT A NIGHT. 🦕☕

Last night, we packed Mendoza Café & Vino for Made in Georgia, a night of comedy, community, and the staged reading of Fossil Fuel Café.

We laughed with incredible stand-up 🎤, got wild with improv from @teatro_ilegal 🎭, watched the cast bring Fossil Fuel Café to life 📺, and closed with a powerful conversation on building independent TV right here in Georgia 💬.

To everyone who showed up, performed, and believed in this, thank you. We couldn’t build Georgia’s indie TV economy without you.

And here’s the big news: our Seed & Spark crowdfunding campaign is officially LIVE. 🎬

We’re raising funds to bring the pilot of Fossil Fuel Café to the screen, the first Latino-created multicam sitcom made in Georgia. Every pledge, share, and follow gets us one step closer.

🔗 Pledge, follow & share, link in bio!

Let’s make this show happen. 🦖

Thank you to our production team, comedians, @teatro_ilegal, our panelists, the cast of Fossil Fuel Café, and @mendoza.cafeyvino for the space. 💛
