Personal Values
I believe everyone has a story to tell. I believe the stories we tell have capacity to transform and heal if done with care, honesty, intentionality, and imagination. I hope to facilitate trauma-informed, arts-based learning spaces for self and communal discovery– spaces where it’s okay to make mistakes, to find joy through the creation process, to try new things and challenge limiting beliefs. I am deeply committed to grounding my art practice in anti-racist, pro-indigenous, caste abolitionist, disability justice, and LGBTQ+ liberation movements. I believe in the collective liberation of all peoples!
