I went to Durham School of the Arts and will be attending Barnard and Columbia with a major in Journalism and Sociology in Fall 2021. I am extremely passionate about environmental racism and fighting the school to prison pipeline. I’ve also worked with organizations such as Made in Durham and the Youth Justice Project. I love to paint, write poetry, and practice yoga on the the days that I feel like it.
