Thine Own Self 2021
hello friends! for the past five months, I've been hard at work creating this 6-minute experimental animated short film about gender & identity. this was my first time doing claymation as well as composing an original score for my work, and I'm proud of how it turned out (as well as relieved to have finally finished! 😅)
many thanks to my peers and the wonderful faculty in my grad program at Syracuse, as well as my friends and family for all…

The Killing of a Sacred Deer 2017
i understand completely why people tend to describe Lanthimos’s movies as cold and unemotional, but I think what draws me powerfully into each one is the fact that underneath the unsettling uncanny surface of flat affect & dry deliveries, i actually feel a churning depth of emotion in all of his characters, including in this movie.

Afterimages 2023
earlier in the summer, i created this short 2-minute filmpoem as part of Counterclock Literary Magazine's "Patchwork: Film x Poetry" interdisciplinary artists fellowship, which pairs filmmakers and poets to create art together. my poet partner was a BRILLIANT high school poet named Mackenzie Duan, who inspired me deeply with their poem and was a fantastic collaborator on the project.
for the handcrafted animation, I mixed various physical materials including oil pastels, window markers, graphite, charcoal, and watercolor paints, working frame-by-frame on both glass and paper.
Mackenzie and I are proud of how it turned out and you can watch our piece here! or on Vimeo. 💙✨

Love, Death & Robots: Sonnie's Edge 2019
when I heard Netflix was doing an animated adult sci-fi anthology I was incredibly excited! went into this first episode expecting to love it... but 15 minutes later, I was left not only unconvinced, but doubtful that I'll be watching any more of the series.
personally I was turned off by the superficial, poorly written, misogynistic dystopian vision on display here. despite a surface-level impulse to disguise itself as a feminist critique of patriarchal institutions, the episode remains rooted in…
