About

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 love traveling and 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.
