About

Chef turned to grief work and end of life care. My background was in psychology and worked with neurodivergent children from early childhood to teenage years. I was drawn into death and grief work during my own experience of losing my lola. My work focuses on decolonizing death and connecting and honoring our lived loved ones across the diaspora.
