Her screenplay, One Day, was a 2022 top ten finalist for the Tribeca Film Festival Untold Stories grant.

The film was dubbed "one of the most accurate film portrayals of what immigrant youths withstand in this country" by the L.A times and "must see cinema" by Remezcla. Prior, she starred in and co-wrote Complex magazine's first-ever scripted series, Grown, which was HBO's Project Greenlight winning digital series.
