Meet the Founder

“All my life I have fought for my beliefs. …I’ve placed my worldwide reputation as an artist on one side of the scale and human justice on the other. The choice is easy for me because I’ve always placed human justice above materialism.”

- Josephine Baker

As an artist, I am deeply committed to exploring the hidden dimensions of the human experience. My journey has been informed by my upbringing in Strafford, MO. Adopted by an interracial couple, the eldest daughter of three, the “theater kid.” I often felt like the black sheep and the underdog. This sense of being an outsider fuels my artistic vision and inspires me to give voice to the emotions that often go unspoken.

In my work, I strive to evoke profound feelings and encourage healing through the exploration of identity and experience. I believe that art has the power to break down emotional barriers, facilitating liberation and leading to unique modes of expression. By examining my own identity and experiences, I seek to illuminate the complexities of the human condition, encouraging others to confront and embrace their own hidden truths.

My artistic style combines elements of theatre, film, visual art, and writing, reflecting my diverse background in the arts. I have a distinct aesthetic that gravitates towards the mysterious and the profound, inviting viewers to engage with the deeper layers of their own emotions and perceptions. Ultimately, my goal is to create a transformative experience that fosters connection and understanding in our shared human journey.
