“Rodeo Queens" isn't just a documentary about sequins and spurs; it's a poignant portrait of three generations of women grappling with ambition, legacy, and the bittersweet cusp of adulthood, all framed by the fading dust of their beloved California rodeo.

"Rodeo Queens" isn't a romanticized Western. It's a raw and intimate exploration of a world where grit and glitter interweave, where dreams collide with harsh realities, and where family becomes the foundation. My visual language captures this duality, balancing the sun-drenched spectacle of the rodeo with the quiet, introspective moments that reveal the vulnerability beneath the crowns.

As a filmmaker, I'm drawn to stories that illuminate the complexities of the human experience, especially within seemingly familiar settings. "Rodeo Queens" delves into a world often romanticized or misunderstood, revealing the struggles and triumphs of women rarely seen on screen. As the dust settles to reveal the beating hearts beneath the sequined facades, where the true meaning of family and resilience takes center stage.
