TINTED
A blog to celebrate "all the shades in-between" in the beauty industry, started and led by @deepica. They introduced a video interview series "Hue To Know" of minority influencers that covers their alternative career paths and their perspective on progressive social issues. The interviews are shot in Los Angeles while I handled the storytelling and editing in New York. Below is a sample of videos I've worked on. See more content here.
NEELAM HAKEEM
"Rapper Neelam Hakeem isn't afraid to address misogyny in hip-hop, or to remind women of their worth in her songs. The rising rapper talks to TINTED about her roots, colorism within the community, motherhood, and what she hopes for women in the future."

MUSTAFA ALI
"Mustafa Ali is making waves as the first WWE pro-wrestler of Indian-Pakistani descent, and he isn’t afraid to talk about his identity head on. The Chicago-native joined us at TINTED HQ to talk about how he’s using his platform to break stereotypes about his heritage and religion, meeting his wife, and his drink of choice (it’s not what you think!)"

TENI PANOSIAN
"We're so excited to show you a side of the beautiful Teni Panosian that we don't often see when she stops by TINTED HQ. In this interview with the beauty and lifestyle YouTuber, we learn more about her Armenian heritage, how she really felt about opening up about her anxiety, and we get a peek into her geeky side too...watch for all the fun!"

JANINA GAVANKAR
"#TintGirl @janina, who you might recognize from TV roles in some lil shows like: The L Word, The League, True Blood, Arrow, The Vampire Diaries, among SO many others...#NBD. We were so excited when she came in to chat with us about all things marginalization, diversity & inclusion (our fav) in Hollywood, what it’s like to be mixed race, her obsession with @bluemangroup and tons more."

NAZANIN MANDI
"Actress Nazanin Mandi is a natural show-stopper, but so damn grounded! She stops by TINTED HQ to talk to us about how she celebrates her mixed heritage (she's Persian, Mexican, Spanish, and Native American..in case you're wondering), her dream acting role, and how she keeps her relationship with singer Miguel going strong!"
