About the Founder and Creative Director

Jaquaya Inéz is a poet, storyteller, and creative facilitator whose work is rooted in authenticity, healing, and transformation. Grounded in her natural voice and deep connection to community, she uses poetry, visual art, and creative expression to turn pain into purpose.

Her work is centered on a simple but powerful belief: art is the key to healing. Through poetry, collaborative art sessions, and live readings, she encourages people to release frustration, confront adversity, and transform difficult experiences into something life-giving. For many, her workshops and performances become a space where emotions that once felt heavy begin to shift toward hope.

Ms. Inéz is especially passionate about helping people recognize the artist within themselves. She believes that everyone has a voice worth hearing and a story worth telling. In her words, "Everyone is a poet—they just don't know it yet."

Whether she is guiding a poetry workshop, collaborating with fellow artists, performing spoken word, or creating personalized poems, her mission remains the same: to shift perceptions, inspire hope, and remind people that creativity can be a powerful path toward self-discovery.
