Mind Blown!

We hired this performer for my husband's birthday party. She was on time and dressed for the occassion which was formal. Her performance left many people asking for her information after the show. In addition she customized a poem for the night. I would absolutely use her again.

Hired as: Spoken Word Artist

What to expect

Each booking is specifically curated to fit both the theme of the event as well as the expected audience. Being a multifaceted writer allows me to ensure all audiences can take something away from every single one of my performances. I have performed at comedy shows, school events for preschoolers to high schoolers, for colleges such as Drexel, Villanova, Penn State and University of Penn. I have also performed for Urban Outfitters corporate for annual Juneteenth events as well as the state senator and other political affiliates. I have the range to perform pieces that will entertain in certain settings as well as educate on others. A curator can expect that the theme of the event will be met with art that honors it.
