The Simple Things
(2022) Your early 20’s can be a daunting and confusing time when trying to understand who you are as a person and how to get to where you want to be. ‘The Simple Things’ is a short film about remembering to not get too caught up in the chaos and take a moment to breathe and appreciate, the simple things. Song: ‘Pool’ by Samia

What Could Possibly Go Wrong?
(2021) As you can imagine moving to a new country by yourself is both terrifying and exciting. I created this right after moving to Japan in the early fall of 2021 in an effort to encapsulate the mentality I made an effort to take. Yes, its scary but as my favorite Artist Dominic Fike once said in his debut album… “What Could Possibly Go Wrong?”
Day off in Japan
(2022) A supercut of my first 10 months in Japan put to a song that I heavily related to in the moment.
(2021) The Song “Falling Water” by Maggie Rogers is something I listened to quite a bit in an effort to give myself strength during my initial move to Japan. I made this video for a personal Instagram post where I highlighted the stress, depression and anxiety regarding the move in an effort to showcase that moving abroad is not some movie-like main character journey, calling out the false and dangerous narrative escapism perpetuates on social media.
