I created these two music videos for the International Human Trafficking and Social Justice Conference - Uniting the global community to learn, connect, and collaborate to combat human trafficking and promote social justice in September - I could not perform live due to my commitment at the NYAPRS Conference and Open Mic on the same days!! Honored to be a part of both these events.
Grateful for my friend Bob Catalano of Bob 'Cat' Studio helping me to record and produce these creative works.
