News and Updates
"Space Lightning" now airing!
I recently had the honor
"Space Lightning," a live action kids show that I wrote, produced and performed in, is now airing on Amazon Prime, YippeeTV!
"Space Lightning" follows Intergalactic Influencer May Starshine, as she documents the misadventures of the Star Ship Intellectus Crew. It's "Lazy Town" meets "Star Trek in a world made entirely out of cardboard! Each episode teaches leadership skills, positive morals, and how to navigate everyday social situations facing preteens today.
This show wouldn't have been possible without the time and talent of fellow artists Kathryn Schott, Adam Mellema, Kay Sibal, Pablo Martinez, and Rogelio Douglas III.
