THE FUN STUFF
MY BREADTH OF WORK
Remember how this is my portfolio to be an art director? Well, allow me to show you how I've been one my whole life. From fashion to photography to jewlery making to DJing... I've been doing this stuff for a while now. It's just the jam to my peanut butter. Let's dig in.
PACK WITH ME TO NYC
I believe a well-dressed woman is a powerful woman. Here's an inside look at what I packed on a recent trip to NYC. This was quite challenging for 3 reasons:
1. I despise being in front of a camera
2. My mom (who is not a photographer)
took the pictures for me
3. My suitcase can only hold so much

VIDEO COLLAGES
I've been making videos since I was in kindergarten but, sometimes the medium bores me, so I like to mix things up every once in a while. The following is a bizarre series of video collages I have made purely for my own entertainment. Click the bottom right to unmute.
BEADED BRACELETS
Bracelet making, an underrated art form in my opinion, allows me to make wearable art for the people I love. My aunt introduced me to her bead collection when I was in middle school and 8 years later BeadedbyHalpal™ was born.

IDAHO STORIES
On my mission in Idaho Falls, I had the opportunity to record and share many stories from local Idahoans to help share the Gospel. The following videos are of an avalanche rescue patroller, a landfill worker, a shepherd, and a humble potato farmer. I love sharing real stories about real people. All of the videos below were filmed and edited by myself. Two of these stories are even about nonmembers.
DJ HALPAL
This summer I spent a month as an intern in LA. While in LA, I spent lots of time immersed in the local music scene and so I decided to pick up DJing. I quickly became addicted to this hobby and now I DJ the best parties at BYU. Below I have attached a recent mix I've made.
