Artist statement
As an artist, I am driven to create work that challenges perceptions, sparks dialogue, and amplifies underrepresented voices. My art exists at the intersection of storytelling and social justice, using theater, spoken word, and movement to illuminate the complexities of identity, resilience, and community. I seek to unearth truths, both personal and collective, that inspire reflection and action.
