I am forever grateful for the lessons and skills that have been revealed to me by those in my life.
In order to nurture ourselves we must find ways to feed the different pieces that make us into a whole person. This site is my way of connecting to my creative-self through my amateur photography and writing.
I believe in the power of story telling; it allows us to grow and embrace our authentic selves. It is a form of healing and an invitation for others to find the power in their own voice and experiences. By sharing my story I hope to carve out space for others to do the same.
My mission:
My calling is to advance justice and health equity for adolescent and youth populations.
I will show up as my full self and embrace radical imagination; I will remain rooted in the values of cultural humility, intersectionality and trauma informed care to challenge systems of oppression, and to redistribute power/ knowledge/wealth.
