Greetings! I am a West African born, American raised, Canadian citizen. What a mouth full, eh? Eating chicken, watermelon and drinking purple drank are sadly stereotypes of black people. Don't get me wrong I enjoys eating chicken especially when my mom makes it. Watermelon...I barely eat that. But what the heck is purple drank? I believes that I have been created to communicate the good news through different art forms (stand-up comedy, acting /storytelling, poetry, spoken word, rap and music), so that those who have been hurt by lies may rejoice in the truth and be strengthened continuously. I am a 2011 graduate from the Dawson College Theatre Program in Montreal, Qc and have 25 years of doing different types of performance arts in Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver – acting in a play, a musical, in movies and tv shows, a spoken word artist, and stand-up comic.
