Welcome
This is my personal space & a repository of reflections, projects, productions, and experiences I wish to share with the world.
The world of communication is often too noisy – but here, I am sure to have a place you can always return to and find my mind and heart.
Remember: My ideas here are not because I seek attribution or visibility – I just seek to give my contribution to debates towards real transformation in favor of the commonly marginalized – or written off.
