Her educational background, time abroad, and years spent working on-the-ground in urban communities (Girls Inc, Teen Challenge, 808 Urban) fuels her passion for equal representation of BIPOC in digital media.
Her writing style is informed by renaissance artists, such as Langston Hughes and great black authors/sociologists like Delores Williams and Toni Morrison. She finds comfort in modern writers of urban stories and draws inspiration from fellow leaders in the field. She aspires to be as raw and relevant as authors such as, Jasmine Mans and Candice Carty-Williams.
Currently, she lives in Los Angeles where she operates her own Digital Media Agency/Book Publication company. Kickin it Productions LLC promotes the telling of well-rounded stories through education, acceptance, and grace. Through her debut literary work, "Being," Artson hopes to offer the world a humble roar into a new era of story-telling.ver menos
