Kyotoπ―π΅β€οΈ Dec 2025
Some of my favorite moments in Kyoto!
I ran around Nijo-Jo Castle every morning for a week!
Went to Fushimi Inari Shrine and hiked up Mt Inari.
Laid in the park at the Kyoto Imperial Palace and visited the market and went to TeamsLab Tokyo which I will post those photos separately. I will visit Kyoto again and again. A must do! #kyotojapan #japantravelphoto #fushimiinarishrine

Last year I told @thv_lin Iβll be going to Vietnam for my last long stop before I return to LA and within minutes Linh sent me her flights itinerary. And the time was perfect!
I wanted to go see Vietnam in 2023 with Linh but it backfired so this was great. When I arrived in Vietnam my grab app was offload and couldnβt work so Linh basically took control of my airport pickup and ordered my first meal and had it delivered to my hotel. ππ½!
I finally got good connection in Hotel and the App was restored ππ½.
The first hotel I stayed only took VND or bank transfer for payment ( no POS or Apple Pay) @thv_lin got the currency changed for me and came to the hotel with her Auntyπ
This was so lovely of Linh to do for me. I appreciate your kind and caring nature. I felt like child at that time π. Also Linh loves makeup and told me to get her this makeup brand in Tokyo called @canmaketokyo I never heard of it until Linh sent the pics. I search all over Tokyo until I found them at Sen Soji Temple of all places π.
I loved it so much and picked up some for my makeup kit. This was a sweat exchange of Currency > CanMakeup π.
Also I wanted to do an Editorial with @thv_lin and her friend showing off Vietnam traditional attire at Ben Thanh and surrounding but time was against us. Hopefully we can go back and execute this shoot sometime in the near future. We didnβt get to hang in Vietnam properly π we decided to meet the last day before we leave but time ran out on us. But what matter the most is she got me situated in her country and that took a burden off me. We both traveled back the same day out of Ho Chi Minh and I waited to say good bye to her in Taiwan lol. I arrive a day later to LA.
Thank you so much Linh

Our film, Before You Let Go, has been nominated for an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Short Form (Live Action).
This recognition feels immense. To be acknowledged by the NAACP Image Awards (an institution that has long championed Black excellence, care, and cultural impact) carries real weight to us. Thank you for seeing us @naacpimageawards !
This film exists because of an extraordinary team of collaborators who trusted my vision and met it with generosity, patience, and heart. Every frame was shaped by artists who believed deeply in the story and in one another. Iβm incredibly proud of what we made together.
And lastly, but most importantly, a deep gratitude to @colorcreative and the Find Your People Program for creating spaces that bring filmmakers together and investing in us to make moments like this possible.

This was 2025!
.
.
Itβs been a year I didnβt know how it was going to go after starting out with the LA fires. I moved out of my apartment and lived in Hollywood for more than half the year and hiked every week during that time. It was a hard start but it got easier each time I went hiking until I started waking up wanting to hike every day. I enjoyed every step I took and thanks to all who came to hike with me. To @drjordan who was a great motivator and hiked with me.
I have worked on multiple Cover Art in 2025 which had shifted on the projects I usually worked on and I am forever grateful.
The projects that stood out the most was working on multiple shoots with @oneruel cc @giantmusic @tristan_watson β€οΈ
I heard the song I added on this reel while I was in Japan multiple times. I worked on some other dope projects too for @apple @adidas @xbox @eajpark @willlinleyy @malcolmtodd @bakergracemusic @zelooperz @vondutch @marriotthotels @enterprise @grammarly @juansvega short film, published in @pap_magazine with photographer @brandonachau and more.
Shout out to Singer/Songwriter & Producer @raphxll was so lovely meeting you last year and thanks for coming to the gym session with me and @iamjuliahuynh π
also got to meet and work with @_asumuh & @ykaizzk (first to ever sit on my Zucaπ) @nathan_hongk and I went to see @txt_bighit π€© @doan.haydenz I still remember that pose!πand @yang.eug thanks for hooking me up to work on the music video with @toni.liuu for beautiful Artist MV @abbyhyejin π
To everyone Iβve met and either worked with you or met you on the trails in LA, for coffee, birthdays, concerts, and while site seeing in Japan, it was a pleasure meeting you or meeting up with you in 2025.
Hope to see you again in 2026 β€οΈ
Concerts/Shows I went in 2025
