Storytelling:  I believe in the power of storytelling to mobilize groups and create connections. In my career, I’ve used storytelling to activate new voices and forge relationships. I currently consult with organizations to bring storytelling practices to their work.

 

"The Great American Dance," western dance moves collide with Bolivian traditions, creating something you'll likely never see again.

Beyond Borders Storytelling

As a co-founder of Beyond Borders Storytelling, we seek to create cross-cultural connections through collective storytelling by producing a live storytelling event every other month, including an introductory workshop and two coaching sessions leading up to each story jam. I love working with first time storytellers and supporting them through the process of developing their story to confidently tell it on stage in front of audiences of 50-80 people.

Student stories

 I had the honor to create a Peace Altar with my students for the Day of the Dead celebrations. Recognizing the students' experience, the altar was designed to give them a space to share stories from their neighborhood and to create art to honor those that have passed from their lives.
