    <div class="post-body">
      <p>    <p>After a year of not writing, I have decided it's time for me to resume this form of communication.  I had to step back for a while and let some time pass for healing.  After five months of filming in Louisiana, it was difficult getting over all that I saw and experienced. The 200 plus hours of footage I captured plays throughout my dreams every night.  I'm not over it by any means, but I am ready to move on and continue my outreach.  <p>

    <p>My project is steadily moving forward.  I have a radio piece about to come out and a final version of Heaven Come Down.  My editor and I are working through the many hours of footage and we are beginning to craft the story of me journey home. </p>

   <p> Tomorrow I am going to Louisiana for two weeks.  My mom is selling her house and moving to California.   This will be the last time I have a home to go back to in Louisiana.  I am happy for my mother, but I am sad as well.  This will be the final chapter of my film.  <p>


   <p> Please keep posted on upcoming entries.  <p>

		<p class="profile-textblock">I am a documentary filmmaker currently living in Monterey, California. A full-time student attending California State University at Monterey Bay, I will be graduating next spring. In September 2005, I returned to my home state of Louisiana following Hurricane Katrina to film the aftermath and record the stories of the people affected by the storm. Two years later, it's shocking to see how little progress has been made towards recovery and rebuilding; I continue with my efforts to help the Gulf Coast.
