“I am very excited about this fellowship, because of the impact and love University Settlement has historically provided, as well as the opportunity to research, inquire and create more performance work, which I haven’t been able to do due to many reasons. As I accept this opportunity, I am currently in a spiritual and rehabilitation program in the mountains of Antioquia Colombia, and I feel incredibly grateful and excited about the future, and what I will create, what we will make!”
