Here’s how ya girl has been keeping ancestry
alive through creativity.
Adornment as Remembrance
I create jewelry as a way of honoring lineage and marking transition. Each piece is made with intention and treated as a talisman, something to be worn close to the body for protection, grounding, and remembrance. This work allows me to carry inherited beauty forward through my hands.

Memory Made Visible
I am currently creating an ancestral womb archive documentary centered on Black women and the history of their bodies during slavery in the Ohio Valley. This project is rooted in research, travel, listening, and archival exploration, and it exists to document what has been carried, controlled, resisted, and remembered through the body across generations.
Through film and documentation, I work to preserve stories, landscapes, and embodied histories that have often been fragmented or erased. This archive is not static. It is a living practice shaped by movement, encounter, and ancestral inquiry.
