YOU COULD’VE BEEN A NURSE
(dark comedy, short film, 2026)
You Could’ve Been a Nurse begins with a family crisis: 76-year old Cely learns she has only days to live. This is not altogether surprising for Cely nor her daughter Gwen, who’s been caring for her in hospice. As Gwen and her brother Terry confront the reality of losing their mother, a new crisis surfaces—the heartbreaking mismatch between Gwen and Cely’s expectations.

sunset Magazine
Farming is normally a family tradition. But with the buy-local movement comes a new generation farmers who didn’t grow up on farms. “From the Ground Up” features three California growers—Kristyn Leach of Namu Farms, Kenny Likitprakong of Hobo Wines, and Daniele Strawn of Jolee Blooms—who went from novice to in-the-know, creating farms on their own terms.

MODERN LUXURY Silicon Valley
In this issue of Modern Luxury Silicon Valley, I worked with EIC Anh-Minh Le to create the chalkboard set for the cover story on Robyn Sue Fisher, founder of Smitten Ice Cream. Doodling a whole wall science-y diagrams was both fun and therapeutic.
