Traditional Griots told stories as a way of preserving the kingdoms history.
As a Griot I use film, photography and good old fashion storytelling to bring people together.
Thank you for reading my stories!

The Heart of a Woman
“FIVE-DOLLAR FRIED FISH & FRIES! GET YOUR FRIED FISH AND FRIES,” I reluctantly shouted on the street corner. The summer sun was beaming down on me. I could see the heat waves rippling through the air as people drove passed me, ignoring my offer. My mother watched as I waved our sign with very little fervor. I could hear her mumbling to herself in Creole. Her mumbles turned into extended teeth sucking, the kind only Caribbean women can produce out of frustration.
