Congratulations Marquette on curating such an impactful exhibit experience, EVICTION. A exhibit he created to reflect fear not living within him anymore and creating a space to release it. Ppl could walk inside and write on the walls fears they’re releasing and leaving there. Powerful.

Marquette is like a little brother and mentee of mine, to be able to witness his growth is a blessing.

Fear can show up in people in so many ways, anger, betrayal, abandonment, disrespect, etc. But the worst thing that fear does is constrict the heart. I’m beyond proud of this brotha for stepping outside his fears. We’ve had many convos about this and he’s continually growing and embracing being uncomfortable and working thru it. To see what he’s producing from that is a gift.

Shout out to Durham Magazine for featuring my bro DJ NABS and Yours Truly in this months edition!! Thank you for Durham Parks and Recreation for the most incredible recognition as Durham Homegrown Hero’s.

Thank you to everyone for your support of all the things! I have been curating since 2012, working passionately and to see where my life is heading is amazing. Never let up on your dreams. Today, I am a full time mom and entrepreneur- dreams do come true. I couldn’t have planned this life, so I give God all the Glory and will continue on this journey fierce and bold.
