I have big news to share! The Time My Grandmother Was Held Hostage by Bank Robbers, the short documentary I directed, produced and edited, is making its world premiere at the DOC NYC film festival next month. This is a dream come true!

I've had no issues so far 🤞
I don’t know when it started but it drives me insane.
The few times I’ve gotten a kit fee, it was $25 per week.
I love working in NYC.
Do it!
This is the movie that made me want to be a part of filmmaking.
Just emailed!
This is especially disturbing because there is no Stonewall without trans people!! I’m truly disgusted by the National Park Service!

I can’t even count the number of conversations I’ve had with a producer or director while walking the dog.
It’s part of the process. No need to be embarrassed!
Seeing Blue Velvet as a teenager, totally changed the way I thought about movies forever. Thank you, David Lynch. Such an amazing artist and human being. 💙
Okay so I’m a few minutes late for #timelinetuesday but I just finished the first rough cut of my short documentary and I’m very excited about hitting this milestone!

The documentary Going to Mars: The Nikki Giovanni Project, has stayed with me since I saw it. It’s a beautifully, artfully crafted film befitting the brilliance of one of the best poets to have lived. So sad we have lost her.
Thank you, Evan!
Just listened to this yesterday. What an amazing team and incredible accomplishment in documentary storytelling!
Love this idea.
Grazie!
Thank you, Corey!
So honored to be featured in Portrait’s 2024 Editors to Watch list, for my work on God Save Texas.

Yes, these are from 2024 and off the top of my head, Look Into My Eyes, Frida, Sugarcane, and Going to Mars: The Nikki Giovanni Project.
And of course Stories We Tell is one of my favorite documentaries of all time.
My grandmother was okay! Thanks for the recommendations. I will happily watch these docs.
It’s called “The Time My Grandmother Was Held Hostage by Bank Robbers” and it’s about the time my grandmother was held hostage by bank robbers in her own home in 1983. I didn’t shoot it myself, I had a wonderful DP.
Thanks so much, David! So happy to connect with other editors here.
