Cuyana is a Black, queer, non-binary graduate of the Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at Adler University and currently works in a private practice setting as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. In addition to consulting work, conducting groups, and facilitating workshops, they primarily work with individuals in the LGBTQ+ community, BIPOC folks, and those who fall within those intersections. Cuyana hopes to continue to provide therapeutic space through a liberatory framework for folks who are often pushed to the margins of society. They enjoy anything that involves a good bike ride, listening to late 90s/early 00s hip-hop and R&B that is apparently old school now, & coming up with alternative names for their 11 year old cat - Ruth Oprah Bader Ginsberg.

Originally from Cleveland, OH., Vita E. has been surrounded by the power of art since childhood. From then on, they made a pledge to use the art that inspired them to influence thought, change, and freedom to exist without apology. Vita’s passion as a Black Trans Femme artist has led to many milestones. She’s recently finished a summer role as percussionist and mentor for Creede Repertory Theatre, and drummer for the hip-hop musical, Once Upon a Rhyme. She recently made her Off-Broadway debut as Violet in the world premiere musical, The Secret Life of Bees. Their response track to Janelle Monae, Hell Y'all Ain't Talmbout, was included in Source Magazines, "10 Song Soundtracking the Black Lives Matter Movement."
