Chester Community Charter School

I read a selection of my poetry to middle school students, led poetry workshops for several classrooms, and participated in a Q&A for students and staff.

Rain Poetry Project

I partnered with Pennsylvania Humanities on a literary project in Philadelphia that promotes literacy among students in different neighborhoods. The project had poetry workshops in various schools. Selected poems were painted on the sidewalk, and when it rains the poem appears. I collaborated with poets and artists committed to empowering youth. Lastly, I created a lesson plan for instructors to teach haiku about growth and community to elementary school children."
