Diaspora Bloom
Diaspora Bloom is a sanctuary for those navigating life between cultures—whether they’ve journeyed from another homeland, were shaped by those who did, or simply feel out of place in their current environment. Like a resilient flower flourishing in unfamiliar soil, this blog is a greenhouse for growth, nurturing the delicate balance of rooting deeply in your heritage while reaching boldly toward new aspirations. Through heartfelt reflections on personal growth, aspirations, and lessons learned, I share my journey of cultivating a life rich in beauty, authenticity, and purpose. Together, we can bloom against all odds—one petal at a time. 🌺

Generative AI Art
Something most people don’t know about me is that I like to draw. This past year, I started sketching a bit more and attending art workshops, which got me into generative AI Art. My genAI art combines traditional Haitian culture and my personal experiences using modern techniques. I use algorithms and digital tools to explore themes of resilience, identity, and community that are important to my heritage. Each artwork features bright colors, detailed patterns, and symbols from Haitian art, along with my unique story influenced by my upbringing.
