We recently shot new content for the site with Christine Price Clark in Arcadia park. The park is on the east side of Vancouver and has stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. I spent the day learning about filming, including shadows, cameras, and their angles, lighting, and my favorite, set disturbances. As the PA on […]

Beginning the day with my morning walk, I began to realize what people talk about with the rain here. Rain here is a leaky faucet. Or drip coffee. It is minimal, but it doesn’t stop.

Flying out of Chicago’s O’Hare Airport at 8:20 a.m., the morning after walking for graduation? Sure, let’s do it! On May 19, my parents dropped me off at the O’Hare Airport with 2 huge suitcases, and two carry-ons. My life, in four bags. The plane took off, and it finally began to sink in that […]
