After a pretty rough start to the summer, I’m happy to have some good news to share.

I am thrilled to announce that I was selected to join the 2023-24 cohort of the Long Table Collective with five other phenomenal creative professionals, including: @gkjcreates, @minstudio_, @seejessletter, @andrepardo__, and @allverygoods!

The Long Table Collective provides professional mentoring for Black, Indigenous, Latino/a, and Asian artists & creative entrepreneurs (including those of mixed race or ethnicity), in a year-long small group format led by @lisacongdon and @emilyonlife.

Ya boy is beyond excited and I look forward to the growth that will continue to come from this season of meaningful growth.

		

I’ve got some fun news.
