My Story
Today, my soul is anchored, primed, and ready to serve the community from which I emerged. The depth of my being echoes, "YOU MUST RESTORE NOW". Deprivation of freedom and sensory for twenty-three years challenged my spiritual, intrapersonal, and intellectual growth. On October 7, 2019, I was released from the bile of incarceration with the humility of a warrior spirit, driven by a higher purpose.
Atoned, redeemed, and purpose-driven, I am intentional about personal and professional crusades for the good of the whole. As a musician, spoken word and visual artist, I must use my art forms to serve and speak to the soul of humanity.
With zeal, compassion, and transparency I have responded to requests from higher learning institutions, government agencies, and corporate organizations to operationalize my life's journey - from tumultuous to orderly. For the past 3 years, while speaking to the spirit of mankind, whether elder, youth, or peer, my journey through healing has taught me that who I had to become to survive is not who I have to be to thrive.
A lifelong learner with a growth mindset, I am poised, prepared, and willing to share the power in transcending adversity.
​
Fueled by humanity, compassion, and understanding - I am an advocate for radical love - despite the odds.
