What is Letters From A Stranger?

Letters From A Stranger began as a deeply personal creative experiment for me. It originally started as a 100-day project, where I committed to showing up every day to answer questions about identity, belonging, growth, repair, and relationships.

It came from wanting to create something that felt intimate and human. I loved the idea of speaking honestly and vulnerably to a reader, or viewer, like a stranger who somehow feels familiar. Over time, it became less of a challenge and more of a space where I could explore life’s questions in real time through writing and film.

The project is rooted in curiosity and reflection. It’s not about polished answers, but about living the questions and sharing what feels true.

Each installment is a conversation, with myself and anyone who might see themselves in the work.

Letters From A Stranger is my way of saying, “You’re not alone. I’m figuring this shit out too."

Thank you, always, for taking the time.
