Summary

I am a youth educator on Hip Hop culture, dance, and music. I'm a founding member of the Hip Hop collective, Project 401, working with youth in the community to relay the positive social messages of Hip Hop while teaching young people the importance of individual expression. Also showing them how to control emotions, be confident, uplift others and expressing their emotions in a positive manner. My goal is to create professional and creative opportunities for less privileged youth in Rhode Island and the greater New England Area.
