Passionate about crafting stories that resonate with spirit, I’m thrilled to share that I was awarded the 2024 NJ State Council on the Arts Prose Fellow Grant (in partnership with Mid-Atlantic Arts) for my novel-in-stories manuscript, Dill’s Mirrors and the Lizzies.
An interdisciplinary writing artist, my work spans literary fiction and poetics, performance, academic publications/essays, and media and reflects my commitment to sustainable art, and restorative green practices that honor the planet and heal Black and brown lives.
This year, I was a featured poet at the Rainbow Book Fair Poetry Marathon at the LGBTQ Center in New York. Keep an eye out for my upcoming appearances this fall, celebrating the legendary Sonia Sanchez at the Barnes Foundation in Philly, my hometown, and a featured poet in the Segue Reading Series at Artists Space in NYC this October.
My performance piece,-in process, Testimonies By the Page, was showcased at ArtHouse in Jersey City as part of the Caregiver Stories on-Stage Project, and my play Seens, was featured in the critically acclaimed anthology Blacktino Queer Performance by Duke University Press.
Other notable works include contributions to Dark Matter Women Witnessing, About Place Journal, African Voices Magazine, and Akashic Books Sci-Fri series.
Currently, I teach Writing Studies and Theater Arts at Montclair State University. Previously, I taught at my alma maters, NYU and Goddard College, a remarkable learning and teaching institution which has moved on to other galaxies...
