Episode Synopsis

In this episode, I share the story behind directing my first music video from a spark of inspiration at a music camp in Miami to seeing the final cut on screen. It started with a beat I picked out in Miami, something upbeat and danceable. I sat on it for months, waiting for the right headspace to create. One day, I decided to pull myself out of a funk and write from the perspective of the person I needed to become to chase my dreams. That song became an anthem for anyone working to rise above self-doubt and move toward their best self. After recording it, I felt called to bring it to life visually. I connected with a choreographer in Charlotte, began private dance lessons, and was encouraged to think bigger—add dancers, build a story, and create a full experience. From auditions to rehearsals, creative direction, wardrobe, and production, every step was self-funded through late nights, side gigs, and the support of friends, family, and Charlotte creatives. What began as one song turned into an introduction to the artist and brand I'm becoming.
