“My artistry is driven by the perceived importance of excavating and reporting truth, whatever that means for the creator. My truth has always revealed itself most nakedly through my writing: in my journal entries, in my critical essays, in my poetry. Writing is my instrument of examination and growth. It is the vehicle through which I discover my voice and then vocalize, fine-tuning my sounds as both an artist and as a woman.

My art provides me a medium to read myself: to investigate the tropes and sonics of myself, and apply those findings to other areas of my artistry. From there, I lay my truths bare in my work, sharing myself with the world.”
