I was born in Texas on Coahuiltecan land. My preschool years were spent in Bvlbancha (where I live now, New Orleans). I also live in Alaska, where I was raised and consider myself from. My Ma and Nanna are from Texas. My father is from Alaska; his parents hailed from Wisconsin. I was born in Texas on Coahuiltecan land.

I haven't introduced myself here in a while, or ever? so I thought I would take a moment to, because @courtney_rose_art took this very nice photo of me during TCBG.

I am a clown. When did this begin? Idk, but I know I was a weird kid alone in my room with make up and costumes making embarrassing videos for the early days of YouTube, that I hope never resurface. Years of theatre, bummin out of a pack, and being consumed by New Orleans surely aided the process. At some point, you gotta commit to the bit.

I am a coordinator; of events, boards, etc. Food and music are pretty good at bringing people together and together we can do a lot. A few positions I hold: Causeway Coordinator at @salmonfest, Team Lead of Youth Alaska Action Board on Housing and Homelessness, founder of @houselessrecords, and Foo Crew of TCBG.

I am a creative. I make posters, music, sounds, art of many mediums, ideas out the wazoo, herbal medicine... Creating is a necessity and I will usually use whatever I can get my hands on. And when I can't, then I make art out of trash. Lately, I've been focused on music and posters.

Thanks for reading.
