ABOUT
"make me a mixtape?"
Music has always been such an important part of my life — making it, playing it, enjoying it, hunting for it, and, most importantly, sharing it with the people I love. It's a force for connection, empowerment, self-expression, social change, and uplifting our spirits.
My friends and family often ask me to create playlists for them and share what I'm listening to lately. I created this in September 2016 as my "back to school" project to find just one track that stirs my soul and post it here every day. In October, I started conducting interviews in-person, via email, and over the phone about the role that music plays in people's lives. Read those conversations here, and listen along to their accompanying playlists. I hope you enjoy what I share in this space.
