A polymathic explorer of imagination and liberation.
Through sound, word, image, performance, scholarship, and inquiry, I navigate the complex constellations of what it means to be human.
EXPLORATIONS
I follow curiosity across constellations and gravitational fields, allowing each exploration to find its own form.
Sound
Words
Image
Conversation
Publishing
Inquiry
Collaboration
I founded The Nasiona as a movement and nonprofit organization that centers, elevates, and amplifies the personal stories and concerns of survivors of oppressive systems and people Otherized by dominant cultures.
Over the years, I built it into a cultural ecosystem encompassing a magazine, podcast, publishing house, mentorship, music and spoken word, live events, and other initiatives and partnerships.
Humanize the Other.
My Substack is where I explore in real time.
I publish finished works alongside fragments, rough drafts, compositions, collages, curiosities, experiments, and collaborations. Some pieces arrive with a clear shape, while others begin as questions, encounters, sounds, images, or ideas and find their form through the act of making.
I use this space to follow what interests me without requiring every exploration to become a formal project. Writing can sit beside sound, a collage can lead into an investigation, or a conversation can open into something else entirely.
I also use the Substack to share work in progress—to let people encounter an exploration or an experimentation while I am still inside it, rather than only after I have resolved it into a finished artifact.
A living part of my practice.
COLLABORATE
I’m interested in collaborations that create something neither of us could have made alone.
I work with artists, writers, musicians, culture makers, organizations, and other curious people whose questions and possibilities intersect with mine. The form depends on the work: a conversation, composition, publication, investigation, performance, creative project, or something we have not named yet.
Fellowship
For those searching for a deeper creative partnership, I offer a selective Fellowship to bring a project from conception to completion.
