 There's so many people depending on me to keep on going. I want to be that kid that actually made it out and did something different. If I can do that, maybe I can inspire a whole different generation. I made a documentary called Katrina Babies that explored the narratives of young New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. It is definitely a reality that kids grew up faster here in New Orleans. But after Hurricane Katrina, we definitely had to grow up faster. I just want to tell those stories. I wake up at 5 o'clock. I go to work. I teach the kids. I give them everything I got. I come home. Some days, I may have a shoot. Some days, edit it. I go to sleep, and I do it all over again. I cannot be anywhere for long periods of time if it's not involving film. I'm about to do a second one. I'm about to be in that second line, too, because it's supposed to be popping. You know how we have jazz juniors down here? Yeah. You know how the band be second in line? That's where we get that second line. It was from the band being second in line behind the jazz show. My roots run through every part of New Orleans. That's kind of encouraged me to have responsibility to tell stories from everywhere in the city. When I'm starting a project from the ground up, it's inspired by experiences that I've had that made me feel some type of weight. I always tried to articulate those feelings that I had when I first came up with the idea throughout the whole project. My overall goal is to change lives, to show the true beauty of my generation, and to show the true beauty of our reality.
