Tell us a bit about your organization and what your specialty is in the film and video space.

I am an independent writer, producer, and actor who made the bold decision to step out of the shadows and fully pursue my creative vision. After facing numerous rejections and closed doors, I chose to take control of my own narrative, literally and figuratively. I did this by creating the kind of stories I wanted to see on screen.

Refusing to wait for permission, I began producing my own work, creating stories rooted in authenticity, grit, and imagination. With a deep belief in the power of storytelling to shift perspectives and spark change, I continue to carve my own path as a multi-hyphenate artist, committed to pushing boundaries and championing voices that often go unheard.

Tell us about your Telly Award winning piece. What’s the story behind it?

Infidelity is often portrayed through the lens of impulsive decisions, alcohol-fueled nights, fleeting temptations, and one-night stands. We hear these stories from the perspective of the betrayed, the heartbreak raw and justifiable. But rarely do we explore the emotional weight carried by the one who cheats. Sometimes, the cheater is also a victim of neglect, loneliness, or emotional starvation. This story dares to tread that uncomfortable middle ground. It invites you to fall in love with both characters, to understand them, and to rediscover the humanity in mistakes. It reintroduces empathy, challenges black-and-white morality, and opens the door to forgiveness.

What are you most proud of about this piece? What was your biggest challenge during production and how did you solve it?

Honestly the proudest moment of Dalliance was being bold enough to do it, especially the love scene that was my first time simulating sex on camera. I was extremely nervous and wanted to make sure my nervousness wasn’t shown on camera.

Do you have any advice to other filmmakers based on your career or your team’s approach to work?

Do not worry about being the best, how many festivals or views. But who keeps going whether you have one view or one million.

Can you share a behind the scenes story or fun fact about the making of your piece?

The crew and cast stayed together at Hotel Boon, which created a space where our differences weren’t just accepted, they brought us closer. By the end of the weekend, we felt like family. We bonded over shared experiences, laughed until we cried, opened up about our personal insecurities, only to laugh even harder together afterward.

Too often, we humans focus on being on the right side instead of simply seeing and understanding one another. But this experience reminded us of the power of presence and connection.

And there we were a group of African American city kids, making art in the middle of nowhere. That, in itself, was a beautiful story.

Tell us about the most memorable response you got from this work.

The outpouring of positive responses and encouragement to keep going was overwhelming. The day I released the trailer, it felt like I had just won my first Oscar.
