ARTIST STATEMENT

FROM NEW ORLEANS TO BERLIN, DE.

My artistic endeavors span both visual art and filmmaking, I want to advocate for thought-provoking narratives. With a strong commitment to individuality, I reject mainstream trends in favor of meaningful expression that confronts systemic injustices. As a feminist, my work is driven by a desire to dismantle biases and amplify voices, striving to spark dialogue and inspire positive change on both small and large scales. Through intentional storytelling and cinematic exploration, the end goal of entertainment should be to foster a more inclusive and empathetic society.
