Artist Statement :
"My aspirations in dance is to keep artistic avenues relevant in our communities for our youth. By creating advocacy through Media/ Social Media Marketing. Dance Education Institutions abroad will bring an incredible amount of union. Anything that brings so many different people of all backgrounds cultures and lifestyles together is something I want to pursue. I want to continue this pattern of bringing so many people together in an artistic free atmosphere, the only way I know how. Where all of our differences are ignored."

Artist Statement:
As an artist, I always use reality as a basement for my work. It's all about the way we view what's in front of our eyes. We call that "le regard" in French. I like to emphase the flow I feel within my shots, and I experiment with impactful rythmes when editing. I dont create narratives. I simply use the actions I see in front of me. I try to capture and transform it to embelish what inspiries me most.. I don't infatuate with fiction,, I produce extracts of real life.. i only want to offer another alternative to my audience. make them feel the good or bad, but sublimated vibes. To decenter them and make them think differently. Its all about poetry; I want to be a visual poet. "
