I have a strong track record of working with diverse communities, particularly youth from underrepresented backgrounds. Through partnerships with organizations like the JK Movement and Saint Paul Public Schools, I’ve led after-school art workshops for students in grades 6–9, designing culturally relevant curricula supported by grant funding. As an artist-in-residence at the Black Youth Healing Arts Center and Cityview Community School, I continue to engage Black and BIPOC youth through accessible, healing-centered art practices. My public art projects, including community murals in Saint Paul, are rooted in collaboration and inclusivity, inviting local residents of all ages and backgrounds to participate in the creative process. I’ve also taught community education classes at Carl Kroening Nature Center, reaching intergenerational audiences. My work prioritizes cultural connection, empowerment, and creative exploration, aiming to foster environments where people feel seen, heard, and inspired through art.
