"I started off this year worried about how I was going to continue making films in the midst of a global pandemic. I now realize that I needed this time to focus on other aspects of filmmaking, and I’m proud of the numerous scripts, essays, analyses, and treatments that I’ve written instead. I continue to be inspired by directors like Taika Waititi, Alfonso Cuaron, and Chloe Zhao, and I eagerly await heading off to Loyola Marymount University for Film and Television Production in the fall."
