It's tiiiiime! We've passed birthday 26, and all I can do is thank you all, so incredibly much. To everyone that loves me and has loved me these past two years. I've been crazier than I've ever been and more sure than ever that it's all for a good reason. I look forward to making new things and showing them off for the rest of my life. All love, all me, always.

Woo woo!

Happy New Year. I made this because I was losing my mind over the fact that I'm done after 18(!!!?) years of school and now it's just life. But thankfully, I got to celebrate it all with some wonderful people in some big ways.

Love y'all tons, hope your year was great. I hope you were a part of mine, because it was a blast 😘!

🎵 : "Just Can't Get Enough" by Depeche Mode

Wow, how lucky am I! To live in a place that I yearned for, to casually experience things I had dreams of (big, big dreams of), to be so surrounded by and supported by love in so many different forms.

I'm happy, I'm lucky, I'm still myself, and my god, I've seen Beyoncé so many times this year it just might have been enough (let's be real, it'll never be enough). Hope you guys are doing wonderful. Thanks for loving me; I hope you love this little project I put together, too.

Here's to 24 being the year of twenty MORE!!!

MWAH!!! 💋💖

WHEWWWWWW. My people. I love so many of you so deeply I'll never be able to fit it into words.

I'm 22, and though I'm young to many, I'm old to the versions of myself who thought I'd be much further along in my path by now.

Essentially every day I've gotten a reminder that I fought and bled and cried to get to where I am, but making this was a really intense reminder of it. In getting to a place where I can succeed, I've had to leave behind the people I'm closest to, and that has been a very new thing.

I'm beyond grateful to have each and every one of you by my side, physically and otherwise, and humbled knowing that I wouldn't have made it without you. If you know I love you but you didn't make it into the video...we need more pictures together.

Bye y'all, love you deep.

P.S. Yes this counts as an Ivy Park video because I'm wearing it in some clips.

Much love and a BIG thank you to everyone who helped me with this project. Additionally, thank you to everyone who inspired me to actually follow through with my ideas. I can be a lot, but the collective belief and buying in that you guys do to support me means the world.

To @amakadsi @weareivypark and especially @beyonce the drops have been great but please send me a box. My card can't take much more.

Additionally thank you to my friends, because now I can say I directed teams in two different cities.

Hey, everyone! Major/Minor spoilers to follow below, so I definitely suggest watching the video above before reading what's down there. 💖

Finished?

HELLO! So, yes! I'm going to USC for grad school. For anyone that knows me or is aware of my goals, you know that just writing this is like a dream within a dream for me. I'm beyond thankful to all of the ridiculously talented artists and amazing friends (if I had a venn diagram to describe them, it'd really just be a circle) who helped to make this dream come true.

I won't be moving to L.A. immediately (like I've said I would countless times before the pandemic) but I will be absolutely thrilled to have their continued support as our journey continues. I love you all so much and I hope you enjoyed this completely self-directed project I made while my family was asleep.

Hey, y'all! I'm a day late, just like last year, but I wanted to keep the tradition and make a birthday post.

Yesterday, I turned 21, and even though it was a more private celebration, it still means so much that I've lived this much life. I have immense love for everybody that's spent time and/or energy dedicated to me and anything I'm pursuing, and I hope that's always felt.

Self shot, with the help of my best friend. Something quick and cute for the day.

Thanks for watching, y'all! Bigger and better things to come, always.

I might even have a short film on the way, who knows?

Special thanks to @thecltv @victoria.elizabeth.jones and @hitomijacinda

I had a lot of fun shooting this, and even though this upload has been a bit chaotic, a lot of work was put into this shoot!

Also, in case you haven't seen me in the past 5 months, I have braces now 😁

Thanks again to @thecltv @victoria.elizabeth.jones and @hitomijacinda

In 12 days, I will be leaving to fully begin my summer in Paris. I'll be studying Experimental Film with NYU alongside one of my greatest friends, @jakelangsner
Without my parents, him, and @tinociatti , I don't know that this would have been possible. This is a ridiculously cool opportunity, and I hope that it is not only a culmination of things that have been, but also a sign of things to come. 🌟

This video and the accompanying photoshoot was inspired by two of my favorite Beyoncé visuals to date: "Ghost" and "Mine". The song, "Nights," by Frank Ocean, was just too perfect a fit to resist. I hope you enjoy!
