DIRECTOR
I directed my first feature film I Will Make You Mine, which I also wrote, produced, and starred in. The movie was set to debut as an official selection of SXSW 2020, but the film festival was cancelled due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.
That was heartbreaking, of course (I wrote a whole essay about it for Filmmaker Magazine), but I’m proud that the movie went on to be released on VOD through Gravitas Ventures. I know you’re not supposed to read reviews, but in May 2020 it was all I had to grasp onto for audience feedback. Luckily, the movie went on to score a 100% Rotten Tomato Rating, where it’s now listed as one of their 81 Best Asian-American Films of All Time.

Stage Kids is a short film that I wrote/directed, produced by the UVU Femme Project. You can watch it here.
I discovered my love of storytelling behind the camera by writing a comedy pilot during my year-long talent holding deal with NBC. I co-wrote, produced, and starred in the one-woman short film Via Text and was a co-producer/series regular on Nice Girls Crew which aired for two seasons on Comcast. I have also produced, directed, and hosted non-scripted content for outlets like BuzzFeed, Tastemade, Hello Giggles, and ISATV that have seen over 40 million views.
