ABOUT

I am an artist-scholar whose textile-based pieces explore the intersections between fashion, gender, and race in Jamaica and the Caribbean diaspora. My recent art pieces and articles have been featured in Contemporary Media Arts Journal (2021); the Small Axe Salon special issue on textiles (2021); and MaComère Journal (2024). I have two chapters forthcoming in edited volumes (Routledge and Vernon Press respectively).
In 2025, I received my PhD from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. My project explored how women use elements of Jamaican dancehall (specifically dancehall fashion) to protest intersectional inequalities of racism, classism, sexism, etc. I am currently based in Toronto.
In addition to creating and researching, I am the editorial assistant of sx salon: a small axe literary platform. I am also the curatorial assistant for Rendering Revolution/Revolisyon toupatou, a bilingual digital humanities project and exhibit that explores the impact of the Haitian Revolution on contemporary art and fashion.
