Urban Gardener

In an era of dwindling natural resources & faltering environmental equilibrium, there is an urgent need for urban communities to adopt self-sufficient & self-sustaining ways of life.

As an urban gardener of over a decade, I developed the Compton Community Garden in my hometown of Compton/Long Beach to provide free organic foods & community programming to a deeply under-resourced South Los Angeles in the midst of a decades-long food apartheid.

Designer

Working across the mediums of footwear design, graphic/visual design, and sound design, there is a concentric point through which my distinct perspective is tangibly discernable; informed by the subcultures and underground communities within which I have found an artistic home base.
