She holds a Master’s from the University of Munich in American Studies and two Bachelor’s from George Mason University in Film & Video Studies and Theatre Studies with a Minor in Music. She is always learning, experimenting, trying, failing, growing, and sharing the theories and methodologies behind her work, ranging from Theatre of the Oppressed to intersectional feminism. For example, she is the co-host of the informative podcast on artivism called Re – Flect / Calibrate. As an interdisciplinary artivist, her aim is to foster dialogues and foster communities, to humbly serve as an artist matchmaker, fostering devised experimental collaborations between artists of every background. She is always creating and everything she does is creative, such as producing music videos and doing one-woman shows at conferences around the world. But her work focuses mostly on uplifting the voices of BIPOC and LGBTQ2+ artists, decentering whiteness and straight/cisgender stories.
