Last night at 11 pm Eastern time, I received an email that confirmed it: I am now a member of @actorsequity ! . I’ve been working towards this for a long time, and taking this big step in my career finally feels like it’s right. I will carry my card with pride, and am honored to join the ranks of my fellow union theatre actors.

I am honored to announce that a film @laurakay813 & I made in 6 days (!!!) has been accepted to the @sequesteredfest ! WIDE EYED will be premiering tonight at 8 pm EST on the Sequestered Festival’s Facebook live! Check us out on YouTube & IMDb as well! . It has definitely been a while since I’ve directed a film, and I must say, directing remotely was a whole other challenge. Thankfully I had a great collaborator to make some great stuff! . It’s been a rough few weeks, y’all, and looking forward to something - anything - has been difficult. Making art with your friends is a great way to keep yourself creatively fulfilled ♥️ Tune in tonight if you can! . . . #NYC #Actress #Director #FemaleDirector #Producer #Stage #Screen #Theatre #Film #Playbill #IMDB #Broadway #OffBroadway #Show #Production #Audition #Casting #BTS #ActorsLife #Work #Hustle #Art #HelloMyNameIsAshleyPleasePayMeForActing #AndDirecting #AndDeveloping #JustPayMeToMakeThings #IndieFilm #WideEyed #SequesteredFilmFest #MakeYourOwnWork (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAONyF5DbfZ/?igshid=k84upvw2po3l

I didn’t think it was possible to be more proud of this film. It means the world to have others recognize your work, and I hope everyone who put in work on this feels that appreciation! Not bad for our first ever film festival, huh? . Many thanks to the incredible @goldenstatefilmfestival , to @chinesetheatres for hosting us, and to everyone who has supported the film! Independent films are a labor of love, and to have an audience get to experience it makes it all worthwhile. . Finally, a huge thanks to @imelliotstevens for including me on this crazy idea. You are a force of nature and I am honored to be both your “partner in crime” and your friend. You made this. Be proud, I know I’m proud of you! Love you always, buddy ♥️ . I don’t know what more to say. I’m beaming like a crazy person. Thank you, thank you, thank you! ... Missing out on BEST THRILLER?

8 years ago in high school, I was voted “Most Likely To Be Seen In Hollywood”. Yesterday that actually came true. . The Hollywood premiere of PSYCHASTHENIA was a complete dream. Seeing ourselves on the screen that hosted the Oscars for years in one of the most historic theatres in the world was... unreal. And I could not ask for a better partner in crime than @imelliotstevens . We did a thing! ♥️ . My heart is full. Many thanks to all of our cast & crew & all of the @psychastheniafilm team, as well as the @goldenstatefilmfestival & the iconic @chinesetheatres for hosting us! And finally, thank you for the support. This is only the beginning, y’all. ♥️ . . . #NYC #LA #Actress #Director #FemaleDirector #Producer #Stage #Screen #Theatre #Film #Playbill #IMDB #Broadway #OffBroadway #Show #Production #Audition #Casting #ActorsLife #Work #Hustle #Art #HelloMyNameIsAshleyPleasePayMeForActing #JustPayMeToMakeThings #RedCarpet #Hollywood #HollywoodPremiere #MayWeAllBeSoLucky #Breathe #WeThePeopleWeTheEnemy (at TCL Chinese Theatres) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9A36gPJ79C/?igshid=xvcde2ihhx5o
