It was absolute pleasure screening RAÍCES: A Culture Connected by Roots at @meltingpointartfestival a great way to conclude our festival run.

The art on display and the energy in the room was incredible. It was so special getting to talk to other creatives that share similar stories of perseverance and courage. Can't wait for the next one!

I'm excited to share that my thesis film, "Sweet Like Mango" premiered at the 2025 Montclair Film Festival in the New Visions program. 🎥

This project has meant so much to me, and it was such a joy to see it come to life on the big screen alongside so many amazing student films. Thank you to everyone who supported me throughout this journey, from pre-production to post. Having my friends and family there reminded me exactly why I fell in love with filmmaking in the first place.🙌🏾
