Originally from Honolulu, Hawaii, Avé Maria is an educator by trade and a poet by craft. Her experience traveling and living in various parts of the US and abroad heavily influences her art, weaving in themes of identity, transformation, and resilience. Passionate about community, change, and accountability, Avé Maria uses poetry to challenge herself and readers to step outside their comfort zone. For her, spoken word extends beyond art; it’s a way of life, a grounding tool, and a means to heal spaces searching for relief.
