My journey is meandering, multi-dimensional, and meaningful. It revolves around identifying, analyzing, and inspiring freedom while also amplifying and preserving the genius of Indigenous +/ African Diasporic activists, ancestors, and elders who show us the way.

I am a carrier of voices, traveling between the old world and the new, gathering wisdoms that might enable us to construct a liberated future. I immerse myself in the mysticism and medicines of the ancients around the world – Brazil, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kemet/Egypt, Mexico, and so on – and build an Afrofuturistic curriculum for Ms. J’s Classroom. I uncover unknown truths about Black architects of the Dallas Renaissance while archiving stories of artists and icons under my Daughter of Dallas initiative. I lead an education ecosystem – BOOM – that provides liberatory learning experiences to visionary youth of all ages. In essence, I dream, design, and co-construct creative spaces for healing and liberation.

I am freedom-obsessed. I live for spirit, story, and style. And I survive on love and inspiration.
