Army of Lovers (May 2023)

I had an amazing time producing, filming and editing this video for the wonderful Toronto hub for 2SLGBTQIA+ folks, The 519. I’ve been wanting to work with them for a while and I’m so honoured to finally be able to.

May 17th, 2023 was International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT). The 519 held a rally to connect in Community and stand up against the hate that has been spreading throughout the existence of Queer folk - and even further, the hate that has been on the rise with increased advocacy.

I’m grateful that I got to work with Tharsi from The Double Jay Collective on this piece. I love working alongside other creatives who share the same values; I get to learn so much from other people. Thanks for being on this with me, Thar!

How is masculinity being reinvented in 2022? (March 2022)

I produced this video for CBC with Owen Weir. It was truly an adventure producing, pitching, researching, scriptwriting, directing, DPing, interviewing, and editing this video essay. So thankful for this platform to share my thoughts. I hope this little piece helps the world be a little more inclusive, be a little safer, and be a little warmer.

Has today's idea of masculinity evolved? Or are we stuck in an outdated understanding of what it meant to be 'a man'? In this piece for CBC Creator Network, Cal Campos (they/them) explores the evolution of masculinity from its earliest days until now - an era where artists like Lil Nas X, Harry Styles, and more are setting the stage for a new understanding of what masculinity is, and could be.

Client: LES Studio

Inclusive Streetwear (December 2022)

LES Studio is a gender-neutral hair studio located in Toronto committed to haircuts that exist outside of gender stereotypes. I had the pleasure of working with them on the below videos to help launch their inclusive merchandise: an LES beanie, LES shirt, and LES sweater. I produced, storyboarded, and edited the videos. They have been optimized for both social media (vertical) and website usage (horizontal).

Welcome to the Green Jar (November 2021)

The Green Jar is one of my favourite small businesses to shop at. They believe eco-living can be simple and that every small act matters. They host a range of environmentally thoughtful products, from loofahs made from plant root, to dish washing soap, non-toxic crayons for kids (and for any age!), all-natural deodorant and more. You can even refill basic house products like soap there. I produced, filmed, and edited the Welcome video showcasing their store.
