In February of 2022 I lost my partner, Bunny, to cancer, after a less-than-two-year battle. This life-changing experience, and now grief, will be affecting my work for a long time to come... It has already engulfed the documentary I was making (on precarity) of which my love and life with Bunny is now the main focus. I also find myself making a memoir too. The documentary is called, Precarious Love. The memoir is called The Best Hard Time.
