Sharon Amuguni is a poet and a rising graduate student in Emerson's Civic Media Art and Practice program. She's been published twice in UMass Amherst's Literary journal, Jabberwocky, and once in UMass Amherst's Butterfield Literary Journal. She's interested in the ways art, media and poetry can be used to foster dialogue on social issues and revitalize communities. Sharon hopes to one day publish her own poetry book centered on the intersection of resistance, creative production and mental health for marginalized groups, specifically WOC and immigrants.
