Bio: She is fierce, determined, effortless—a showstopper. She is a gift, a performer, a reflection of our highest selves. She embodies truth, reminding us to do the same. She represents blaq womenx—Black, queer, womenx—globally, unapologetically. 

M.E creates immersive, self-embodiment experiences, merging movement, poetry, spoken word, and music. A lyricist, author, mother, teacher, and dancer, she moves everything, journaling her daily practices of motherhood, movement, and discipline. She believes in showing up for oneself—a lesson reinforced through motherhood, honoring the womb, the woman, and our interconnectedness.

Heal Hop is the next evolution—a counterculture to mainstream Hip-Hop, rooted in community, family, and high vibrational healing. M.E transforms performance into communal ritual, guiding audiences through self-love, forgiveness, peace, and joy.

Capable of delivering a 1-hour MErsive Xperience, she captures and reflects the audience’s energy through movement journaling, poetry, dance, and yoga. She is deep, raw, refined, and grand—both savage and graceful. She leaves it all on the floor, urging others to do the same. 

M.E is mystery and revelation, structure and chaos, challenge and release. She moves toward the self, for the collective, reminding us that healing begins within.

In connection to the theme: Myself Embodied (M.E) invites the Kansas City community to step into the wonder of presence, movement, and self-expression. Through poetry, dance, and sound, M.E transforms public space into a living, breathing experience—one that encourages curiosity about ourselves, each other, and the rhythms that connect us all.

What happens when we pause and ask, what’s serving me? What’s serving my community? M.E’s work challenges us to embrace the full spectrum of emotion, identity, and connection. Through movement journaling, live storytelling, and interactive performance, she turns the everyday into something strange, surprising, and full of possibility.

This project explores how we live together with differences—inviting the audience to see themselves through M.E’s journey of self-embodiment. What’s your true north? What’s your next step? In a world that moves fast, M.E invites us to slow down, listen, and move with intention.

By blending spoken word, Hip-Hop, and dance, M.E cultivates a space of wonder where healing, curiosity, and community meet—challenging societal norms and inspiring us to see ourselves, and each other, with fresh eyes.
