Aliyah N.C. is a budding teaching artist, illustrator, writer and former U.S. military brat of Jamaican descent who has lived in over ten different places across three different countries. A former graduate of St. John’s University (2019), in 2018 she received the Social Actions Initiative Award from the Sociologists for Women in Society alongside her peers as a part of the Health & Migration project. Locally, she has worked with several organizations including the Art Lab and has exhibited work at Kinetik Arts (Empire Outlets). A perpetual foreigner, in a world that isn’t always inclusive, she likes to create work that celebrates the “other.”
