I have been an independent, professional artist in San Antonio for almost all of my life. I am proud product of the City's Eastside, yet many do not know the strides and struggles of my success as an African American, woman artist. I have been on stage doing live theater since the age of 7 at the Carver Cultural Center, have had my live band, DevSoul, for over 15 years, and now I'm ushering in a new era here in SA through my new production company, Art Noir Productions. We will be a company that produces and promotes art and music that represents stories and experiences from an African-American perspective and more. As an evolving creative, I am now producing and screenwriting short films. The sky is the limit! I am ready to lend my voice not only by having a seat at the table; but by constructing a table so that we may all have a seat to sit and be represented. Asé.
