hi! i'm Jai! i use he/him/his, ze/zem/zir, xe/xem/xir, and ze/hir/hirs pronouns interchangeably.
i am diasporic desi, brown, queer, trans, and multiply disabled. these identities inform my work.
i’m a multi-media artist. i sing, compose, write lyrics/poetry/theatre, act, paint, sculpt, tattoo, direct, do dramaturgy, teach, and do textile work.
i am pagan and animist, and my divination / meditation / witch-for-hire work shines through this background. my spiritual path mostly lies within Norse, Germanic, and Greek polytheism; my cultural background is Hindu and Buddhist.
formerly a coloratura soprano, i'm now a baritenor. my journey navigating voice changes on HRT led me to vocal pedagogy.
i live on Lenape land in NYC with my two cats.
