“This was Geraldine’s first time acting and I wanted to make her feel comfortable on set. Not only that, but I wanted to take things from her personal experiences and implement them in the film. So before shooting I sat down with Geraldine and we had a long conversation about her life as a Filipino working mother.“

I love to film things, tell stories, and read on the subway. I'm pretty sure blue whales are my power animal.
