I am a circus artist, entertainment producer, writer, and advocate for equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility. I am particularly passionate about Face Equality as a major human rights issue. My life experience has taken me from non-profit meeting-planning to performing circus full-time to producing shows in delightfully unexpected places. As a facially different, Disabled, Japanese-American, Neuroqueer person, I have spent my life living in the simultaneously prismatic and challenging intersection of race, gender, sexual orientation, and Disability. My career in entertainment has taken me throughout North America and around the globe and has delivered me to this powerful moment of reckoning where we are all being given the chance to open our individual and collective humanspheres: To meet and embrace each other as whole humans who are individually and collectively capable of experiencing the whole brilliant, wacky, challenging and fulfilling spectrum of life. I look forward to walking this journey with you as we explore our evolving lives through new lenses of hard questions, introspection, empathy, and the celebration of differences.
