As a student, it's complex to see onself as more than an intellectual muse, creative composer, and lover of all things bright and colorful. It's also complex yet comphrehensive as a person, to write about myself in a way that I, and you can understand. Since those versions of "hello my name is" are rather cliche, and since I'd prefer you visualize me to be the person that I'm exposing myself to be on this here webpage, I will do just that. I will allow you to see me at my purest form, visually invinceable as I charter you through one of my most precious projects.
​
This project is catapulted through Michigan's Minor In Writing Program. Through this project, I was able to produce a well-supported topic of my choice: Black American Sign Langauge. Utilizing my American Sign Language skills, psychological reserach, mentor relationships with my professors, and ability to see the world through a language-community lens, I created the Modern Black ASL Project. More info about the project can be found on the home page.
No this is not my complete bio, but as I am still transforming and thus still writing, I find it appropiate to leave the page in waiting......
