My name is Myssi. I am a deeply empathetic, detail-oriented, creative individual looking to pour into my community through caring for those who are most vulnerable and unseen. As a mixed-race black woman raised in the south, respect for elders, caring for home spaces, and treating people with optimistic kindness are all major parts of my identity. As a visual artist and dance performer, I have grown a resilient spirit that holds deep knowledge and respect for the body and its healing potential. I am guided to seek this type of work by the purpose I felt developing a curriculum and teaching an inspiring group of mixed ability youth at a School for the Blind in Jersey City. Caring for my grandfather after his stroke has also illuminated this path. I am adaptable, hard-working and committed to finding work and alignments that will uplift the most sensitive among us.
