What skills and experience
will you bring to this
committee assignment?
Before moving to Northampton I drew a lot of my experience in
my community and local arts by participating in various film
festivals, gallery installation shows, being president of my
university's LGBTQ+ social/activism organization StandOUT,
being a founding member of my university's animation
collaborative project organization Flipbook, and doing theater
acting and stage/sound design all in southeast Louisiana. Once I
moved to Northampton I started to participate in my local
community by starting a comedy career and working my way up
to being a local booker, host, and known performer in western
Massachusetts until COVID-19 hit the US haulting any profitable
and safe way to currently book/host any comedy events. Before
COVID-19 I started working as a freelance animator, and since
quarantine I've been making bigger strides as a remote animator
this year.
Along with my arts experience, I also have close ties to the local
LGBTQ+ community being a trans woman myself. Before
quarantine I also built a lot of experience working in human
services with neuro-divergent disabled adults until I could no
longer continue due to being immuno-compromised and unable
to carry out my work tasks at the time without being at a possibly
fatal health risk. I bring a lot energy and passion for the arts and
my community to the Northampton Arts Council's table.
