Artist
+ Teaching Statement
"As a teaching-artist, I’ve always engaged critically with minoritized communities, including my own, to offer a deeper and nuanced understanding of filmmaking and the care it can offer for us all."
"Teaching isn’t just about instruction for me. I have a responsibility to impart onto my students the importance of using nonfiction filmmaking as a tool for change, not only for community, but for themselves. My classroom serves as an active space to sharpen our individual and collective voices. Engaging alongside, while simultaneously engaging beyond, the academy."
