How are you today?
What's inspiring you?
In the midst of global chaos, art-making, facilitation, and culture-work is providing me with solace and inspiration.
I am grateful to share that my new play for young audiences, "Sheela & The Amazons", was presented as part of the inaugural season for Little Island @Pier55!
Many thanks to the extraordinary support of the New Victory Theater's LabWorks program.
Costumes and character renderings by Sharone Malka.

I was also part of the cohort for the 2021 Summer Writing Residency with The Inner Loop. The Inner Loop is a literary reading series and network for creative writers in the Washington, DC metro area.
I was able to spend time on the sacred land of my ancestors, enslaved and free, at Woodlawn Estate & Pope-Leighey House.
A new piece of theater titled "Living Landscapes" is beginning to form in my imagination.
Check out my blog post inspired by my time at the Woodlawn Estate here!
