It’s M.I.A. Day and I couldn’t be more excited! Last summer I got the pleasure of working on this amazing show and I met so many incredible people! From AD department to Costumes, to Production Office, to 2nd Unit, I floated throughout this show and learned so much! This show not only gave me great foundation as a PA but it also pushed me as a creative! We all worked so very hard on this show, and so it will always have a special place in my heart, because it was key to me unlocking my fear of being a full time creative. And although the journey is just beginning and it hasn’t been easy, I’m so grateful to have the ability to create full time in this last year, in all the scopes.

To my MIA family, I miss you guys and I hope we all find time to reminiscence on the great times we had and special moments we created as we shot this series!

M.I.A. Season 1 NOW STREAMING on @peacock ✅🎬🎉

What’s your favorite Beyoncé album?
And be honest…can it actually hold up against the Holy Trinity: Countdown, Love on Top, and Party?

If you've known me for a while, then chances are you've endured multiple rants about how much I love this project and the people working on it! We filmed this pilot in 2023, and after persistent hard work and dedication put in by my pal @gerardshaka & tha crew, the pilot is ✨finallly✨ ready to be viewed from a screen near you!

We’re hosting a private online screening tomorrow Sunday, May 18 at 7:00 PM via YouTube (link in bio). This special viewing is for our friends, family, and the incredible group of people who helped bring this story to life.

Mark your calendar & catch a free preview of this awesome series (before it gets picked up & you have to pay a subscription to view it on TV 😏).

A messy Florida gay ignores the warnings of his friends and family, who are all worried about him working on a project with his ex-fiancé, but his lies to them only cover up the puzzling attachment he has to the love of his life. 🌴👨🏼‍❤️‍👨🏿

Our proof-of-concept pilot for Tri-County The Series has hit the film festivals! After premiering at @outshinefilm, we’re excited to push forward with the momentum!🌈
