“Reimagine everything.”

-Grace Lee Boggs

I am a LEADER.

Learn more about who I came from, where I started, what I’ve built, and where I’m going. Who inspires me? Whose words drive my soul into my voice? What do I make of myself in this vast landscape? Welcome yourself into a part of my story…

I am an ORGANIZER.

Liberation starts with the people—peoplehood I stand among and am forever learning and discovering with. When I trace my roots, I feel the vibrations of systems and empire. Yet when I plant them, I feel a movement, a struggle against oppression, that I had never once stopped fighting for. Join me.

I am a TRAILBLAZER.

Altering historical inertias, breaking generational paradigms, owning my narrative—yet never forgetting who I came from. Let’s defy the odds that young people face and challenge the expectations of what we are capable of. I certainly won’t be the last.

I am a WRITER.

With language, I gradually learn to process the generational dissonance, grief, and trauma that has threaded me from the inside out. I wield power in deciphering the murky depths of identity. Who do I sob for? Who do I forge for?
