As a trilingual writer, interdisciplinary performance artist, editor, and embodied facilitator, my offerings range from workshop design & facilitation, to writing/research, to providing editorial feedback, to directing performance projects.

I work between borders: of disciplines, language/body, art/activism/scholarship, conflict/transformation. I am committed to an abolitionist framework, and interested in collaborative efforts in re-imagining creative, just futures. Contact me about collaboration/ booking.
