JOURNEY - An Asian American Documentary (2020)
The Asian-American youths in this age have grown from their traditional notion of their Asian/American parents wanting their children to become a doctor, or a lawyer, or an engineer. These two young artists who were raised in the art-defined New York City are examples of these radical times, pushing past stereotypes and wanting to fit in with the careers they want to pursue.

During the pandemic, I developed my video editing skills through everyone and their mom’s favorite app -- Tiktok.
