Uzo Nwankpa DNP, MSN-PH, RN, is a fourth generation descendant of healers. I am a queer Igbo womyn from Southeast Nigeria with an ancestry gifted to restore balance using the indigenous practices of my people.  I am a public health nurse, educator, facilitator, performer, researcher and advocate for healing through the use of intentional music and movement.  As a first generation immigrant to the West, and global citizen, I am committed to decolonizing my patterns, being a bridge between the world of Africans in the continent and the global diaspora. I am committed to learning through my body and how it relates to other bodies that are different from mine. As an advocate for communities that use the arts to heal,  I am dedicated to creating and exploring diverse ways to combine ancient practices with innovation.
