“Whenever people eat or drink together, it’s communion…The act of taking food into our bodies is so personal that we really only want to do it with people we’re very comfortable with…Generally, eating with another is a way of saying ‘I’m with you, I like you, we form a community together.’
And that is a form of communion.” - Thomas C. Foster, How to Read Literature Like a Professor

(*FAKE BLOOD, FAKE PROP WEAPONS*) One thing you might not know about me is that I have cast 30+ film/video projects. I adore actors. I love acting with them. I love watching them work. I love being friends with them. It is one of the few paths (that I know of) where sensitivity is truly viewed as an asset. Working alongside such talented people has taught me so much about my own work as an actress. I will continue to focus more on acting than casting, for now. Thank you to everyone who trusted me to help cast their projects and especially thank you to all the wonderful actors who took the time to submit, audition, read, and work towards all of these special projects. Every casting process looked completely different and I watched every single tape submitted. Your hard work does not go unnoticed or unappreciated. Keep up the amazing work. You inspire me to do the same.

21 DAYS LEFT!!! Here are our Week One supporters! Thank you all very much for supporting our film. You are making this dream project of ours a reality and we cannot thank you enough for considering us :)

We are 13% funded which is a bit below where we were hoping to be. We need to hit 80% by July 13th so if you are at all excited about this film, even dropping us a few dollars will add up to making this project real. Regardless, thank you guys :))

Still taking it all in… I’m incredibly honored to have been premiered by @bfpfilm at AFS Cinema Theatre for @chopsticks.shortfilm . This experience means so much to me, and I’m beyond grateful to be part of something so special.

Huge thank you to our amazing cast and crew—your talent, hard work, and passion brought this story to life in the most beautiful way. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to share this journey with. 💫🎬
