When I Saw Him Again

WHEN I SAW HIM AGAIN was a passion project I wrote, produced and co-directed at BuzzFeed. Despite being over 22 minutes long, it immediately went viral on YouTube and Facebook. It now has over 10 million views online. The most incredible part of making the film was the response it got: I received hundreds of messages, comments, and e-mails from women and girls who said they had never seen their experience with sexual assault, and recovering from it, so accurately depicted on screen.

EXES was one of the first shorts I ever made. I released it on my Vimeo and YouTube pages with zero followers. It blew up overnight, was posted on dozens of blogs and websites like BuzzFeed, Jezebel, Huffington Post, and Glamour, and it received over 1 million online views, in addition to a Vimeo Staff Pick.
