“The function of art is to do more
than tell it like it is – it’s to imagine
what is possible.”
(hooks, 2012)

I work across essays, interviews, and editorial content with a focus on intersectional narratives and cultural critique. I’ve edited print and digital publications, and contributed to their pages. I also have a substack and tumblr where I share diaristic pieces and poetry.
