• I was born in the island of Trinidad
• I’ve been writing stories and singing since I was 8.
• I love colors and have very specific palettes that I often refer to!

Born in Trinidad and raised in Brooklyn, NY, diversity & dynamism have always been at the core of my expression. My journey began with writing short stories, and dances playfully through several disciplines such as painting, graphic design, songwriting and music production. I also have a contrasting yet equally extensive background in tech, with a degree in Information Security and Criminal Justice. In the past I’ve used art as a tool to advocate for myself and other marginalized groups. Now I fuse my interests in art and tech to become a creative problem solver — using art to inspire, teach, and heal — as I believes love and understanding is the true path to freedom. My passion to share art with kids as a form of understanding themselves and engaging with the world around them also stems from this belief.
