Traveling to Italy has been a dream of mine ever since I was a little girl. And now that I’ve achieved it, I am not exactly sure where to turn next, but the possibilities excite me. What I am sure of is that I am extremely proud of myself, as well as my peers on this trip, for taking advantage and making the best of an opportunity like this. I feel lucky to have been able to further explore my passion for production and filmmaking in a challenging, but beautiful and rich, environment. As someone who finds joy in listening to and sharing people’s stories, and making everyone feel heard and seen, Urbino has truly been a gift.
