ABOUT ME

Welcome to my site!

I'm an American artist located in France.

I graduated in 2009 with an International Baccalaureate, IB Diploma, from The International School of Toulouse where I took english, french, art, history, biology and math.

In 2010 I completed and passed, the first year of three, in theater studies, at Léda, Ecole de l'Acteur de Toulouse.

I graduated later in 2019 with a Bachelor's degree in "Live Events and Television" from The University of The Arts London. I specialized in creative producing, script writing and, after many outside collaborations, in acting.

I graduated in 2023 with a Masters degree in "Design For Social Impact" from The Paris College of Art.

The program consists of various courses such as design thinking, social entrepreneurship, governance, research, academic writing, positive leadership, ethics and internships. The course is connected to the NGO "Make Sense".

My primary interests, with my work, are human rights, social justice, refugees, neurodiversity, mental health, women and children.

In the past I had the opportunity to do a university internship with "Kabubu" which hopes to encourage refugee inclusion through sports and volunteered with "Secours Catholique" in service to the homeless and refugees.

The two charities I presently volunteer with are "Oasis des Cultures" which has for heart refugee inclusion and "The International Child Art Foundation" which aims at fostering empathy, through creativity, with children.

I am a member of the French associations "ONU Femmes France" and "Collectif 50/50".

In 2022, with the support of my brother Robert Harold, I founded a film production association titled "Du Coeur Productions" which primarily aims at creating social impact and environmentalist projects.

I have published articles, with "Scientific Research Publishing", on early childhood education, creativity and the thought processes it affects such as problem solving, critical thinking, empathy and ethics.

I additionally founded, late 2024, a company titled "Talk and Create" specializing in teaching English, as a foreign language, to principly children, in classic classroom settings, and through creative activity.

I believe that art can bring about knowledge and understanding, empathy and compassion, societal change, uplift and encourage and create positive escapism along with treasured memories.
