I’m a Nigeria-born, Atlanta-raised writer, scholar, and filmmaker. I hold a PhD in Cinema Studies from NYU Tisch School of the Arts. My research contemplates the role of performativity in southeastern Nigerian women’s installation art. I am the writer and director of This Thing Is Not for You (2022), a short film that has screened at the New York African Film Festival, the San Francisco Black Film Festival, the Morehouse College Human Rights Festival, and beyond. I previously worked as Assistant Curator at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London. I got my MA in Global Creative and Cultural Industries at SOAS. I founded AFRICA SALON, a contemporary African arts festival, as an undergrad at Yale. My writing appears in publications including Seen Journal, ASAP/J, Feminist Review, and Burnaway. As a Libra sun/Gemini rising, I express myself, my thoughts, and my creative visions through multiple mediums and practices. My goal is always the same: to make space for, center, name, articulate, and uplift Black, African, and diasporic experiences with a focus on women and gender-expansive people. In and outside of my work, I seek out things that feel magical, like astrology, good plant-based food, and my fur babies.
