Teaching Statement:
As a Black Woman, emerging Black Artist, and Activist, I am poetically driven to engage performance spaces that voice narratives centered around Black Womanhood. As a Black Educator, it is my responsibility to purposefully engage storytelling through movement spaces where movers are encouraged to engage with themselves and the community through movement.
