Welcome to my archive of projects, photos, videos, illustrations, and research about my family and Jamaica
This project began with a short documentary Bloodline (2019) where my mom and I discuss our family tree, her immigrating to the U.S. from Jamaica, stitched with home videos and photographs.
The Films
Now in 2022 and in my senior year at Pratt Institute, I’ll be continuing the world of Bloodline with my short thesis film.

Bloodline Book 1
I’m starting to work on my senior thesis film, a sequel to Bloodline. I’ve become fascinated with archives and art books, and this book is my first attempt at gathering the digital photos, the Ancestry family tree I’ve grown through digging around the internet, and other media that represent main characters and moments that influenced me to make this project.
