Giving voice to the voiceless and unheard has always been part of her DNA. In her first short doc, I AM NOT YOUR HERO, the film documents the toll that caring for others takes on three African American doctors, mothers and wives, and their desire to be seen for who they are: talented doctors and ordinary people.

Her creative vision was seen on full display when she conceived and produced LA SPARKS STRONG WOMEN SHORT. This video not only showcased the women of the Sparks and all of the beautiful intersectionalities of their identity, but was a statement against the misogyny and sexism that still occurs to these world renowned athletes who had just won a WNBA championship. The video and

campaign garnered over a million views on social media and got national press coverage.
