"My art honors the people in the world who I most admire. The peacemakers, the leaders, the changemakers and those who have taken the risk to make this world an equitable one. People who have been influential to me and my heart. The people who inspire me to be a better human. Embroidery helps me to honor their lives, their missions, their causes, and their words by meditating on these aspects of their personhood with each stitch."
