How much can your life change in a moment?
TYPICALLY TRAFFICKED is an upcoming 10-minute short film based on a true story of an indigenous woman’s survival and escape from a human trafficking ring. Human trafficking happens to people of all ages, genders, and creeds, but is disproportionally high among Native and indigenous communities. This film aims to hold a light to the dark, and expose these crimes to the world so that we may better protect our most vulnerable.
The second of two short films projects I’m proud to announce I’m working on for BOLDtFEST 2026 as DP and co-editor. While it is a departure from the usually light comedies into something darker, I feel very strongly that this is an important story worth telling, and presented in a way that all audiences can understand, and lead to greater understanding and dialogue around the reality of human trafficking. Premiering October 16 at the Eureka Theater, for one night only (future release platforms TBD).

“Well-behaved women rarely make history.”
MIGRAINE: The Pebbles Trippet Story is an upcoming 10-minute short film chronicling the life and times of Pebbles Trippet and her years of activism, from cannabis to opposing the Vietnam draft. You’ll see how a girl from Tulsa, OK afflicted with headaches from youth become the namesake of a California law in 1997. Produced in collaboration with FXS Studios and Access Humboldt for the 2026 BOLDtFEST, coming October 16!
And now for something a little different! While I have been away from LEGO and stop motion, I am very excited to announce that I have been working as the DP and editors of TWO short films being produced in Eureka, CA. It is not the end of my time in animation, but for years I’ve dreamed of finding the opportunity to make a proper transition to live-action, and I’m appreciative of these projects for giving me the chance! The world premiere will be at the Eureka Theater in Eureka, CA - October 16 @ 7PM, one night only! (The film will live on elsewhere TBD)
