I’m a Haitian-American writer, filmmaker, and educator working at the intersection of story, technology, and social change. My interdisciplinary practice weaves performance, journalism, documentary filmmaking, and computational methods to surface underrepresented histories and rethink how narrative can serve civic life.
I began my career in New York theater before transitioning behind the camera to produce work centering diasporic voices. My early film work includes associate-producing White for ITVS’s Futurestates series, which screened at SXSW and Tribeca. A deep commitment to cultural transformation led me to Haiti, where I taught “Leadership for Social Change” at the university level and supported a USAID-funded housing initiative for earthquake-displaced communities.
I’ve produced educational media for institutions like the University of the West Indies and developed a television pilot through the CaribbeanTales Incubator at the Toronto International Film Festival. With grant support from The Archives of the Episcopal Church, and through FilmShop’s DocShop South Work-in-Progress Lab, I am currently developing The Radical Experiment of Haiti—a feature documentary exploring democracy, migration, and Black political imagination through my ancestral connection to abolitionist James Theodore Holly.
Currently, I’m a 2025 Fellow in Columbia Journalism School’s Lede Program, where I’m using natural language processing to study the performance of political rhetoric in 19th-century media and its relationship to modern-day misinformation.
My writing has appeared in Harper’s Magazine, The Haitian Times, and elsewhere. A finalist for the Writers Guild of America East’s Made in NY Writers Room, I am fluent in Haitian Creole and French, and committed to reimagining how stories—and the technologies that shape them—can foster a more informed and engaged world.
