Profile

About

Motivated by my own lived experience aging out of the foster care system, I am committed to creating meaningful change — not just for youth in care, but for all vulnerable communities — through support, advocacy, and access to music and educational opportunities. I believe that with a people-first approach, the arts can be a powerful tool for growth, connection and lasting change.
