I write as a means of exercising freedom and resilience. Finding its roots at the intersection of poetry, Hip Hop, the black literary tradition and theater, my work is about resonance. I am interested in crafting language in such a manner that the listener, viewer or reader can somehow see themselves or some aspect of their lived experience in the text. I write for change and believe that once someone is personally affected by something the positive social impact begins. I hope my writing can be an impetus for some.
