I currently reside in Boston. I am the Director of Strategic Communications for Mayor Michelle Wu's Community Engagement Cabinet for the City of Boston. I am a founding board member of Boston Art Review (BAR). I had the pleasure of guest editing  “Revel in Black Excellence,” a section in their sixth issue celebrating Black artists in Boston. In 2018, I was named a Boston Artist-in-Residence by Mayor Marty Walsh exploring how art influences government policy. As a writer, my work focuses on how women can use writing as a tool for healing, liberation and advocacy.

I am an author and self book publisher of three books including two intergenerational anthologies uplifting the voices of women. My first collection of poetry entitled Water Carrier inspired by Solange's "A Seat at the Table" was released in October 2018. How We Take Up Space is my latest body of work. I am the creator of the Boston’s Most Resilient Women project which tells the resiliency stories of women of color. I developed the Boston Women in the Workplace survey researching women's experience in the workplace. I am also the founder of Girls, Write! a creative writing and publishing program for girls of color in Boston.

I love God. I am obsessed with seeing women of color win in life. If I could have a bottomless mimosas brunch with five fierce women alive, it would be Danyel Smith, Angela Davis, Tracee Ellis Ross, Angela Rye and Solange.

When I am not writing, you can find me at an art gallery, traveling the world, curating a new vegan or pescetarian recipe in my kitchen or eating my way through eclectic cities internationally.
