If you were wondering if you saw me in an AT&T commercial the answer is, HECK YEAH YOU DID! 😆 This shoot was a true joy to work on thanks to the oh so chill and talented director @brianbeletic, the awesome folks @smugglersite, the truly superb @sonnenbergcasting, and the freaking awesome cast including @joshuad22 and @drewlip! Oh so special thanks to my incredible agent Juliana Castro at Aperture Talent, I adore you! After racking up thousands of hours on set as a crew member and behind the camera I found a new love in improv and performing lately and to be honest it’s been an absolute BLAST. I’m feeling incredibly grateful and having SO much fun y’all! With that I’ll say, follow your joy and what lights up in your path. It can lead to some truly unexpected and amazing places. Lastly, I am SO grateful to the new friends I’ve made along the way in the improv community - I FREAKING LOVE Y’ALL! ❤️, Erin @wgis_school @wgis_space @ucbtla @ucbcomedy @dreamwaveimprov

Today, on Juneteenth, (and many days) I’m thinking about my 4th great-grandmother, Henriette Gradinego (LaChapelle). Some accounts say she was born into slavery in Louisiana and later freed either by her father-owner upon his death, or by the French-Canadian man she married. There has always been some talk in my family about our Creole history but I knew next to nothing about it until a DNA test and some extensive family tree research that led me to trace my heritage to Henriette and Henriette’s mother Marie-Jeanne, who was also a slave. (Trauma share incoming.) At the time I discovered this, I was also unravelling my experience as a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, and there was something about a glimpse of my ancestor—this woman who went through who knows what, survived to be 83, and perhaps thrived at some point—that connected me to a female ancestral strength that I needed and I call upon to this day. Henriette, Marie-Jeanne, and this side of my lineage are why I send emoji’s like 💪🏽 because it is a small reminder to myself, every time I send one, of my own heritage, and the inherent strength of these women that lives somewhere deep within me as well. Thank you, Henriette. Thank you, Marie-Jeanne. You are remembered. And in my own ways, you are celebrated and still make an impact. (Wish I could find a photo or image of you, but you are present in mind and being.) ❤️🫶🏽✊🏽💪🏽

Papa, Happy Father’s Day. I think about you every single day, miss you a ton since you’re no longer earth-side but still feel deeply connected to you and your energy. One of the things I loved about my dad were his cards (text below, 2nd image) and I’m so grateful I’ve saved so many of them. He loved golf, watching golf, walking the beaches of Santa Barbara where we both grew up, movies (especially romantic comedies), talking big picture life, spirituality, among many things. He did an incredible job of making his only kiddo (me) feel seen and truly, deeply loved. I am SO grateful for the experience I had with my dad in life and am so grateful for the connection I get to continue to foster since his passing.
Love you, Papa. Miss you, love you, always.
Inside the card reads:
“To Erin on Valentine’s Day. I went searching for your V day gift, hoping to find something to express my love and possibly something which expresses what I see as your promise as a daughter, an artist, and a human being. After some searching, this card leapt into my hand. It’s symbols of moon, star, sun, and heart, and it’s message of “Universal Power“ struck me as a powerful, symbolic expression of your promise as an individual and an appropriate way to express the pride and love I have for you. Hope you enjoy it. Much love always, dad. PS happy V day! Have a great day! Miss you.” #happyfathersday #papa

I had a 4PM call time so naturally I went to Disneyland solo and got in the holiday spirit. Please enjoy the bank of selfies I took to commemorate the occasion. TBH, it was pure delight. Hope your day was awesome! If it wasn’t, sending ya hugs! Happy Thursday! ✨ (Yes, I had a rain-free day while at Disney. Yes, I stupidly went on Tiana’s and got wet anyway. Yes, I managed to hit 6 rides, treats, strolling, and still made it to work on time!) #solodisney

Y’all I am OVER THE MOON to announce my feature script, CARGO, is officially a Semi Finalist at the Stowe Story Labs via Film Fatales! I’m just so joyful to know that this truly personal ‘sex-positive, through a female lens, in the wake of grief, celebration of living in the moment’ tale is resonating with other folks too. So much love and gratitude to @filmfatalesorg and @stowestorylabs! Thank you to the friends who have read so far, I am so grateful for your feedback and support. Yaaasss! #writersofinstagram #writerdirector #femaledirector #femalescreenwriter

Well in the midst of the chaos and coming together with community here in LA it is SO nice to receive 2 bright spots of news. My feature script CARGO has advanced to the quarterfinals of both Emerging Screenwriters AND WeScreenplay Diverse Voices Lab! The feature is based on a (my) true story and one that’s near and dear to my heart and authentic voice as a filmmaker. I’m so grateful and excited to see what happens next. Thank you @wescreenplay and @emergingscreenwriters! What a true gift this is right now! #writersofinstagram ❤️

Helping me here sincerely means helping me realize a lifelong dream… I am so thrilled and honored to announce that my weird, yet deeply personal script, WALL has advanced as a FINALIST in Outstanding Screenplays competition! We are aiming to make the short as early as January with my BFF @kisvarday (Everything Everywhere All at Once) helming as Production Designer - funding dependent - and guess what?! You can donate directly at helpmemakemovies.com (link in bio)!
I have raised $11k so far and aiming for another $22k.
I’ve been working on set for over 15 years and I am SO ready to start directing my own work again. If donating feels crunchy for you right now, sharing and posting on your own platforms helps a ton too! Check out @outstandingscreenplays for their full post.
Thank you. I love y’all so much. *HUGS*
