About Me
My Experience
Grow Dat Youth Farm
January 2017 - June 2017
Grow Dat Youth Farm is a sustainable farm in the middle of New Orleans' City Park. I did a six month paid internship as a crew member, learning about prevalent issues in our community, leadership skills, and how to farm sustainably.
Aries Project
September 2019 - April 2020
I am studying the differences in stigmas between visible and invisible disabilities through research, interviews, and personal fieldwork. I hope to come one step closer to diminishing these societal constraints for people with disabilities.
TEDx Youth Dayton
December 2019 - March 2020
I will be speaking at the TEDx Youth Conference in March of 2020. I am going to share my story about living with a disability and how I overcame it. I am also explaining how much our country needs architecture designed for those with low to no vision.
