I am a communications specialist and storyteller whose work sits at the intersection of faith, justice, and community.
Originally from Liberia and raised in Worcester, Massachusetts, I bring a bicultural lens to every story I tell.
As Communications Content Specialist for Diversity and Inclusion at UMass Chan Medical School, I conceived and launched Connective Issues, an institutional blog amplifying underrepresented voices across the medical community. My reporting covered DEI policy, health equity, and the lived experiences of students and faculty of color.
Shaped by a United Methodist upbringing and deep roots in the denomination’s mission of faith, service, and social action, I have served as an editorial and social media consultant for United Women in Faith, work that reflects my longstanding commitment to the UM tradition of meeting people at the margins. I am also the founder of The Africa Expo, an annual platform connecting African diaspora vendors, community members, and sponsors in celebration of African culture and enterprise.
My writing spans the ELCA, Medium, and my blog theorymeetspractice, covering Black life, diaspora identity, racial justice, motherhood, and global solidarity. I hold a Master of Divinity from Boston University and a BA in English from UMass Amherst.

About Me
I am a writer, communicator, and community builder who believes every story told well has the power to change something. I grew up between two worlds — Liberia and Worcester, Massachusetts — and that experience of navigating cultures, languages, and spaces taught me early that the stories we tell about ourselves and each other matter deeply.
My path has taken me from the front lines of social justice organizing in Tacoma and Atlanta, to the halls of an academic medical school, to faith communities across denominational lines. Along the way I have written news, launched a blog, produced newsletters, consulted on editorial strategy, and built a platform celebrating African diaspora culture through The Africa Expo. What ties all of it together is a simple conviction: people on the margins have always had the most important things to say, and my job is to make sure they are heard.
When I am not writing, I am thinking about how communities are built, how traditions are passed down, and how ordinary people carry extraordinary wisdom. I bring all of that into every piece I write.
I am currently available for freelance and contract engagements. If your organization has a story worth telling, I would love to help you tell it.
How I work
I lead with listening and center the communities I write for. I work on a freelance and contract basis with mission-driven organizations, faith communities, and institutions, and I am comfortable working independently or alongside an existing communications team.
