I am a spoken-word artist whose sole purpose is to make beauty of everything using the power of words, emotion and connection. I have performed for a variety of events including a tv series, weddings, pageants, school assemblies, college homecomings, art shows, community gatherings, documentaries, etc. I feel the most comfortable when I am sharing my soul with others, and will make it my duty to bring light to every guest at your event. I have a wide variety of work and am willing to tailor my poetry to your event if applicable. I hold myself to a high standard and will not disappoint.

Hearing that brings me so much joy! I know I was hired to help bring inspiration, but I left that room feeling more inspired than ever by you and everyone else involved. It was truly a pleasure to be there and I am looking forward to future possibilities.

December 2, 2021Not only was she supremely talented and commanded the attention of the room, she was extremely professional. She communicated with us to ensure that the event went smoothly and that her performances met the needs of the event. We 1000% recommend her.

November 11, 2021My husband and I hired SadeCru for our wedding and she spoke so well! SadeCru was loud enough for everyone to hear her without a mic and timely in her arrival. We absolutely LOVED the poems that she came up with about love, her words are very moving! Highly recommended :)

I have been writing poetry since elementary school and my first live performance was at a local open mic (in New Orleans) seven years ago. Since then, I have had the opportunity to perform on numerous occasions at places including academic institutions, art exhibits, weddings, competitions, fundraisers, poetry showcases, etc. Being on stage is cathartic, but the moments after I walk off are what make me return. The hugs I have received from strangers, the innate relation and relief so thick in the air between us, are what make it worth it. Being told that my words helped someone tangibly capture their own previously ineffable thoughts is what keeps me writing late into the night past my own doubts and fears. Seeing, firsthand, that I can make even one person feel a little less alone and a little more understood provides my greatest reward. Writing is my bread and performing is my butter.
