The Space Between Documentary

Progress

There are moments in a project where things just click — where you look up, breathe, and realize, “Wow… this is really happening.”

Recently, there have been a lot of those moments.

I’m excited to share some major updates on The Space Between — and where we are in bringing this story to life.

Recipient of From the Heart Productions Funding

Another exciting milestone — I was awarded an excellence in storytelling award from From the Heart Productions, a nonprofit that champions independent filmmakers who create work that can make a positive impact.

From the Heart Productions has supported countless powerful documentaries over the years, and being selected by them means a great deal. It’s encouragement, momentum, and a reminder that this story matters.

Where We Are Now

Right now, The Space Between is entering its final production and planning stages.

That means:
• finishing key interviews
• organizing remaining shoots
• preparing the edit
• planning outreach & audience engagement
• building community around the film

The heart of this film has always been simple:

Are we as divided as we’ve been told?
Or is there more space — more humanity — between us than we realize?

Every interview, every conversation, and every mile traveled for this film has brought me closer to the same truth: we are more alike than we think. And when we sit down, listen, and stay curious, something shifts.

What’s Next

As we move closer to the finish line, I’ll continue sharing stories, insights, and behind-the-scenes updates. This film is not just about exploring division — it’s about building connection.

If you’ve been following this journey, thank you.
Your encouragement fuels this work.

If you’re new here — welcome.
We’re glad you’re here.

There’s still a lot of work ahead, but I’ve never been more energized. This is a story worth telling — and I can’t wait to share it with you.
