​I am a community-focused nonprofit leader and entrepreneur who seeks to spread the joy and esteem of being one’s authentic self through creative expression.  Through Building Bridges Institute for Racial Reconciliation, my mission is to help others recognize and account for the prejudices we hold and inflict on others.  Until America truly reflects upon and remedies its racist roots, we cannot fully move forward and be the great nation we have the potential to be.  I am committed to being a part of this work.
