Thank you @mindykaling & @thejustinnoble for inviting me to direct and be apart of the @thesexlivesofcollegegirls fam this past summer! I loved working with this cast, crew — and every department it takes to bring tv to life — so much. I even got to bring @sienaeast along for the ride. Thank you @modupethomp @appelsass @sarahtap for writing great episodes and being the best snack / beverage buddies on set. Special shout out to DP David Miller and my queen Emily Hogan for being my ride-or-die AD ❤️ — if you haven’t streamed episodes 7 & 8, what is wrong with you?!! Go. Go. Go. If you want.

This past summer I was given the chance to co-write and direct something very near and dear to me with an incredible cast (including all the First Nations folks who came through!) and a crew who went to GREAT lengths to create the world (@elisasauve ❤️ ) and this episode. It’s always a team sport, and this team was a dream come true. When I say we went through shit together, I’m not kidding — more on that another day! I can’t wait for you to see the heart warming/breaking performances of our lead cast: @robertimesa @natalie_benally @kiowajgordon & @forrestgoodluck. With all my respect — thank you to our showrunner, Howard Gordon, for handing over the keys to the ship to tell this story. And thank you, Chip 🙌🏽 for your collaboration in writing. @jeremy_benning you and your 🎥 team have my heart forever. Pierre, wherever you are, my gratitude for your kindness and partnership as AD is infinite! Enjoy this teaser and check out our episode tomorrow night on FOX!
My Grandma Thelma passed this week. As a kid, I would watch her wrap her bee hive hair into a scarf at night, while she removed her face with cremes and went to sleep next to her and some stuffed animals on nice pillow cases. Me and my sister have her nails. I drank a lot of Tang and ate a lot of bologna sandwiches on Wonder Bread with Miracle Whip at her kitchen table, and swung many days away on a rope outside in her red rock yard in Ft. Defiance. One of my favorite things as a kid was to run between her house and my great grandma Rose’s house right across the drive way, I’d always come back with a box of raisins in my pocket and we’d eat them in the yard. As I got older, she would pass on a piece of her jewelry to me here and there — her opal bracelets are something I consciously wear every time I feel I need some courage, confidence and protection. She’s one of the many Tótsohníí women I come from, and although she lived a long life, her absence today feels intergeneration-ally profound. My mother has lost both her parents in the last few months, and us grandkids lost our last living grandparent. For us, that generation has gone onward and we remain here as the things they prayed for. There’s always so many questions I’d have loved to ask them, but I’m grateful for the memories she wrapped me in and my love for her and all of my grandparents for enduring what they did so I could be here is endless. ❤️🪶
