2021"My work engages with and challenges assumptions of black cultural expression and notions of belonging through experimental cinematography. As a part of my filmmaking practice I test the boundaries of identity and self-identification through autoethnography to approach notions of racial authenticity.
My interests lie in observing environmental and familial connections to concepts tied to racebased expectations and to expose those boundaries of identity in veins such as religion, style, language, and other black community based experiences."

An exploration of the expression one makes when the music is just that good. Meant to capture the intense emotion of the performers as they listen and dance to music while simultaneously addressing the universality of Black expression and whether or not such a feeling is a common experience.

A short film based on a polaroid sent to my mother from my father before he was sent to federal prison. This film is an attempt at connecting to the emotion and process of deciding how you want a loved one to perceive you and the performance of "cool".
