Creative Dreams at Booker High
Really excited about the work I'm doing with the students at Booker High School in Sarasote, FL in partnership with Semkhor Studios! I love inspiring people to dream and empowering people to create the futures they desire.
The dope thing about the youth is that they are still malleable and hungry. I see my younger self in their eyes so I'm honored to be influencing the next generation of artists and creators.
Thanks for having me! See you all soon!

"Abby lacked confidence in reading and math which affected her emotionally as well. We enrolled her in the Laurel Civic after–school program. Though the commitment and dedication of the staff, she had all A’s on her last report card and has blossomed! Laurel Civic has helped with laying the groundwork for Abby to achieve lifelong success."
