Don’t See You.

 Working with Melissa Espinosa is always a beautiful collaborative process void of ego. We trust each other. Trust is the most important ingredient in any collaboration. “Don’t See You” is an acknowledgment of all the times I ignored my intuitions. Writing the song was an exercise in speaking more plainly, after falling deeply in love with metaphors and analogies.

Anyway.

This one is very special to me.

It was produced by one of my best friends at a time when I was starting to ask myself, what kind of artist am I?

what kind do I want to be?

Performing this song live made it clear.

Creating the visuals with a great team, was truly a gift. Jonatan Mejia pushed to make this collaboration happen and styled me. We did great work together.

We proceeded with Vongsawat behind the lens on this, the first video I wrote the treatment for, creative directed and produced.

Though, I have to admit, when I was doing those things I didn’t know most of it had any title. I just wanted to see what was in my head come to life.

If You Stay.

I’m a bit addicted to putting teams together.

While never a logistics person, somehow planning shoots is a passion of mine, even tho organizing with all the schedules can be hectic.

Working with Aana, Ashley, and Isabella on this shoot where we captured video and photo, was nothing short of a dream. We were efficient but indulgent.

I met all of these women on Instagram. Remember when people used to say “it’s just instagram!”?

What a game changer.

Jilted.

I wrote this song about my father.

As a child, he was in and out on my life.

This song was born out of a time when I started to make peace with all the broken pieces that maDe me.

1 month after this video was released via Noisey, my grandmother died and my father and I reconnected.

it’s hard to describe what “jilted” means to me.

Dreamtiger shot, directed, and pitched the concept. I loved it.

We flew Eno Swinnen in from Belgium to work on the 2D animation, and the rest is history.
