FAREWELL NYC, THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES!

I  moved to the Bay Area to pursue my master's in Fine Arts! 

Exciting, I know. Yet, leaving Brooklyn is bittersweet. 

My love affair with New York began 6 years ago when I moved there from Detroit by way of Chicago. Since then, New York and me, we've been each other's ride or die. I can confidently say, I love New York and New York loves me. Brooklyn, BedStuy and Harlem especially, lifted a sis up!  

I met some dope humans during my time in the city. Scholars, activists, students, administrators, artists and creatives all made my years there unforgettable. They, along with my fam, made the concrete jungle a sista's playground. Thanks to StudioBoothCo, Tiff McFierce and Ode to Babel, I was able to preserve this special moment and bid NYC a proper farewell.
