EDY

Edy likes to run, from her family and from her problems. The road she’s been running has led her to New York, a city that never stops. As Edy’s world keeps spinning out of her control, she’s trying to find her place in it. And sometimes, that place ends up being somewhere entirely unexpected. Edy follows that story, the story of a girl feeling lost and out of place, the story of a girl figuring out where she belongs in the world.

Porshia Blankenship, senior at NYU Tisch, majoring in Dramatic Writing & History. Writer, director, Parks & Rec binger, and Sriracha enthusiast. Enjoys ordering friends around from behind a camera, crafting truthful stories, and representing the queer and mentally ill communities in media where they’re often ignored. Dislikes when the microwave beeps again to remind you of the food you completely forgot about, starting assignments in a timely manner to prevent stress at a later date, and making a decision on which pronouns to use in a bio.
