When I do book readings, I always incorporate music or singing.

I tend to focus less on genre as a starting point and more on idea or intention and let the idea dictate genre.

When I wouldn't leave home without my blue contacts or when I was bleaching my hair, I didn't have the language to articulate that I was trying to assimilate to whiteness. If anything, I was trying to "look normal."

Music is my first love, where my artistic journey began.

I have been and continue to be committed to art as a tool to ignite, comfort, and discomfort.

I have dedicated a significant portion of my time and artistry to making art that addresses various forms of oppression, including white supremacy, misogyny, and biphobia.

When I was writing, I wanted every word to be not only deliberate, but musical. Precious.
