Her work has been featured in renowned publications such as Afropunk, Slay TV and Curve Magazine.

On this episode, Shelby and I talk about how people are valued on the basis of money in capitalistic systems, Bill Gates and his trampoline room, and also why she chose art as her mode of communication with the world. We hope you enjoy this episode!
