This was about 2am, but the end clip was another day and I actually have a toddler on my legs that you can’t see. When I am experiencing grief I just let myself dance. Editing is also a play space for me. Recently I have enjoyed exploring pop and lock techniques, but I can’t help but just wave around…

I’m fairly certain that even people who say, I don’t believe in New Year’s #resolutions,” are prone to making them in January just like everyone else. It’s hard to avoid honestly.

That being said, you do not always perform roles that are your…

It is very difficult to allow the perfectionism in me to die for a moment, so that in its place great beauty might flourish in its rawest form.
