One month since we lost you.

Time has warped and stretched and curled into itself in a tangled mess of confusion and contradictions. I move too slowly some days. Too fast others. People keep reminding us there’s no right way to move through this, that we just will.

I cling onto the things I can count — Mondays since: 4, full belly laughs: 3, days back on set: 6, sunrises: 2 — and let go of the things I’ve lost count of, like the innumerable gestures of love and support from friends far and wide, or surprise tears that have sprung up at the most unexpected times, or all the tiny, everyday miracles of nature I try to catch a glimpse of you in.

I wanted everyone in my life to meet you because I hoped that knowing you would mean knowing me. I will carry you with me in everything and hope they meet you there.

In other writing news: I WILL MARRY YOU! 💍

•••••

In the first month of my MFA, I was lucky to attend a panel at a literary conference where @_rwinstonsworld dropped a nugget of wisdom that has stayed with me ever since:
“Everything is writing.”

Which I took to mean: “Live, and the writing will follow.”

That has never proven more true than this past year when I had the profound honor of officiating two of my favorite couples’ weddings.

Once the nerves about the magnitude of the task had settled (and once the happy tears slowed down), I got to work and found that it was all already there. That a life overflowing with friendship, cozy nights in, adventures around the world, honest, vulnerable chats, curiosity, good books, good food, dancefloors, big laughs, big cries, and profound affection for these four individuals was all I needed to tell a story of love and hope.

Writing feels harder than ever these days but it’s important to remember that all of it is writing. All of it.

Cheers to all the stories told in 2025! May 2026 be boundless fuel for many more stories to come ✨

Freelance production feels like a high-speed chase a lot of the time. Jobs come and go at breakneck speed it can be hard to keep track of the end goal—writing! always writing!—and take a breath to celebrate the small wins when you do get one step closer to that goal.

Shoutout to @jihye.co for taking a chance on my writing and throwing me into the Joint NY mania. Getting to watch our silly little spot come to life was surreal and an absolute blast 🧛🏻

February 2025

Professional highlight of 2025 so far: getting whisked out to Palm Springs by @kate_branom during the coldest week of the year in NY for an insanely fun crash-course into the Athleta x @northsix family.

Came back with a camera-roll full of too many joyful snippets to choose from (and WAY too many shots of palm trees*), but here are a few highlights ☀️🌴

A brief moment of appreciation for @austinfilmfest 🤠

So much of the writing process is invisible. We find pockets of time to create and live in our own worlds—chipping away at plot and structure and character and theme and dialogue and message and prose and voice again and again and again—all while living in the Real World, keeping up jobs, trying to be good friends and family members, facing the onslaught of profoundly distressing news, doing all the mundane tasks adulthood demands of us, and squirming through conversations with smirking finance bros in bars: “Oh you’re a writer? Anything I’ve read?”

And then we get to do the thing we dream of daily: we press pause on the Real World. We flock to Downtown Austin, donning our gigantic lanyards and wolfing down our Cava lunches, and for eight jam-packed days, we are all Writers. Plain and simple.

We take each other at face value, exchange ideas with generosity and openness, exist in the same space as masters of the craft, share doubts and fears and concerns about just how much delusion it takes to actually succeed, laugh and commiserate until wee hours of the morning, and marvel as our community morphs and grows across the country.

It is such a gift to feel this inspired. All there is to do now is to keep on writing!

This whole shoot and the awesome, gory, spooky-season video that came out of it were not for the faint of heart. (Seriously: heads up if you’re squeamish)

Honored to have been part of the tireless team that put this together. The smell of onions will never not make me think of y’all.

September 2024

This whole shoot and the awesome, gory, spooky-season video that came out of it were not for the faint of heart. (Seriously: heads up if you’re squeamish)

Honored to have been part of the tireless team that put this together. The smell of onions will never not make me think of y’all.

June 2024

One of the most frenzied, exhilarating, rewarding set days I’ve experienced so far, running 45 talent all over the East Village for a @stevemadden tribute to NYC.

So honored and proud to have been a part of the incredible crew that pulled off this massive job.

I may have lost a few brain cells that week (see: final slide) but the outcome was absolutely worth it.

September 2023

On a blazing summer day, as we ran around Brooklyn on an ~urgent~ mission to drop more than our day rate on luxury treats for client, @rebeswag shared a nugget of wisdom that reframed everything: “We do this so we can do that.”

“This” being often grueling, sometimes thankless PA gigs on commercial sets. “That” being creative projects with friends that build community and fill the soul.

Rebecca graciously took me into her Brooklyn family of independent, low-budget filmmakers who have astounded me again and again with their warmth, generosity, imagination, fearlessness, and scrappy dedication to putting art into the world.

Because, at the end of the day, what else is there?

(In other news, my knack for missing group photos remains unparalleled.)
