I’m an American-born artist and writer.
My work often explores constructs of the male identity and how it relates to violence, generational trauma, class and my own enmeshment. It has been exhibited in New York City, Los Angeles, Italy, France and Berlin.
I write articles too. You can find my writing in The Guardian, The Atlantic, Slate, Guernica, EATER, Gothamist, Bandcamp and The Fader and many other places.
I also have the producer of several hour-long documentaries on Caribbean music, politics and diaspora for PRI’s Peabody-Award winning Afropop Worldwide. In 2018, I produced and launched the first ever podcast for The FADER.
My short fiction and poetry has appeared on Juked, Maudlin House, Queen Mob’s Teahouse, The Fanzine, Twin Pies Literary, Rejection Letters and elsewhere.
I hold an MFA from the Image-Text program at Cornell University.
Currently, I host the podcast Money 4 Nothing about music and capitalism.
I’ve also been on TV a few times too.
