Who We Are

I, Jéhan, wanted to have a place online where people could follow my artistic journey without me feeling confined to the rules of social media platforms. I have very strong feelings about Kevin Sorbo.  I'm a purposefully slow moving human machine because it's important to me to do the thing I teach. I understand that urgency of time - especially for communities like me and mine- is a tactic of white body supremacy.

I love studying languages. De-centering English as the language of prestige in my classrooms is important to me.
