I was a boy in the village doing alright. Then I created Sofia the First, Elena of Avalor and Firebuds. You know, for kids.

Thank you for the 10th anniversary wishes! I meant to post something about this on the actual day but your artwork and post are better than anything I would have done! ❤️💃👑 #ElenaOfAvalor

Happy 10-year anniversary to #ElenaofAvalor , the show that taught me that women can be leaders. Thank you @craiggerber.com for gifting my generation of girls (many of whom are now young women, like myself) with this beautiful story. Thanks to Elena, I’m now chasing my dreams at film school.

Breana Navickas, one of our ah-mazing storyboard artists on #sofiathefirstroyalmagic, has a kickstarter going for her super-cool witch/vampire project and she's almost at her goal. Crossing my fingers and wands that she makes it! 🧛‍♀️🧙‍♀️✨

Here we are with some of my boards for the Sofia the First: Royal Magic episode "The Green-Eyed Monster!". This was another favorite to board since I adore close siblings bonds in stories, and I really loved getting to board scenes showcasing Zane and Zaria's.💙✨️🩵

I didn't know Princess Butterfly had so many views. Speaking of that ep, we only included snippet of the song Sabrina Carpenter recorded for that episode (as Princess Vivian). But there's actually a whole 2 minute song. Maybe I'll play it in an IG reel someday... #WhosThat #SofiaTheFirst

I'm wondering why Sofia The First videos about butterflies tend to get high views on YouTube. Among the regular episodes, Princess Butterfly is the highest rated episode, clocking in at over 43 million views. Among the Magical Friends shorts, Layla's short has the highest views, over 277,000.

Happy Pride to all who celebrate love and acceptance. Much love to all you beautiful dolls out there just trying to get by being yourselves. And much love to those unafraid to love someone the hateful might deem wrong. Everyone else: fix your hearts or die. Fuck hate, choose love. Love wins.

I've been checking in on the #sofiathefirst tumblr fans since Royal Magic came out and it reminded me that I put a shout-out to one of the biggest OG tumblr fans in the StF series finale song, A Big Day. I could only fit in half their handle bc of the rhythm but it's the thought that counts! 💜

If you wanna hear some of the songs from #sofiathefirstroyalmagic that haven't appeared in the show yet (and some that have), the soundtrack just came out and is available for streaming (or purchase) in most of the places you would do that online! You may even hear some Disney Princesses sing! 💜👑✨🎵🔥

Loved the in-depth discussion AWN had with @swaggletoof.bsky.social and I regarding some of the more technical aspects of #sofiathefirstroyalmagic! It'll give you a good glimpse into how much effort we put into the show, which debuts on #DisneyPlus today (in the US)! 💜👑✨#sofiathefirst

If you have some spare time and want to hear about my winding path to animated TV, @nevslin.bsky.social and Dan Rutstein graciously invited me to be a guest on their podcast about rejection & adversity in the biz - "Screaming Into the Hollywood Abyss." And oh did I have plenty of both to share! 😂
