Playtime is always more fun when you get to work with talented @johneffofficial. 💟 Loved diving deep into #characterstudy for a month-long prep before filming our scene from the famous, "China Town," which we read in full before our scenes were given to us. Learning how to ride turbulent emotions yet stay aware of objectives while also carrying out specific actions with blocking - that's the part we're not supposed to show. Working through that beautifully messy process until it flows seamlessly on any project is one of my life goals.

As we celebrate #blackhistorymonth, this a great reminder of the power of #intersectionalfeminism.
