Been sitting on this one for a minnn. We shot most of this in one day/all nighter back in 2024 with a mighty crew of 9. A challenging shoot to say the least, and an even more challenging editing process. But as always, we prosperrrr&alignnn. 🤍 Much love to the team for thugging it out w me during the shoot cause we were alllll nodding off lmaooo
My first independent short!—stay tuned for the trailer 🫦🦋

Dog Sees God 2026

To say my acting debut was a success would be an understatement. I couldn’t have asked for a better environment for my first ever production. To be surrounded by such talented people from the director to the cast it was such an honor. I am nothing but grateful for the opportunity that was blessed upon me and if I could I’d do it all over again 🫶🏽

Today was the last performance of the last show I’m doing with the Drama department and what an incredible show to go out on!
It’s a bittersweet feeling. I’m incredibly proud of the cast, crew, and production team. I’m grateful for the support they’ve given me while I’ve supported them throughout this process. And at least I knew this was the last show, so I could appreciate it all one last time.

I’ve been with the Drama department for almost 13 years. First as a professor and a director, and these past 3 years as the Program Coordinator. I don’t know what the drama department looks like without me or who I am without the drama department, but we’ll figure it out. We always do. There’s no other choice.
