HAUI™ is an award-winning mixed-media artist known for directing, devising, and designing cross-disciplinary work for stage and screen. As noted by Stir Vancouver his art, "defies categorization, much like the artist at its center."

Major news outlet Etalk highlighted that his work, "is going to allow a lot of people to begin healing."

Over the past decade, HAUI™ has developed a diverse body of work that synthesizes theatre, dance, opera, film, and visual arts, exploring themes of race, gender, and sexual orientation, while bridging the gap between art and activism and shedding light on overlooked histories and forgotten narratives.

Notable works include the feature film MixedUp (produced in association with OUTtv), and the immersive site-specific dance installation Private Flowers (commissioned by Toronto History Museums).

HAUI™ joins the ranks of influential Canadian artists like Atom Egoyan and Robert Lepage as the youngest director in Canadian Opera Company history. His award-winning opera, Aportia Chryptych: A Black Opera for Portia White, created with Sean Mayes was hailed as "a rare world premiere from the Canadian Opera Company" (The Globe & Mail), featuring the first Black director, librettist, composer, ensemble, costume designer, sound designer, choreographer, and producer, alongside an orchestra of diverse musicians. The production centered on Portia White, Canada’s first internationally acclaimed singer of African Nova Scotian heritage.

The show challenged the notion of "Black firsts" as isolated events, positioning them within a collective continuum in the larger African diaspora. Breaking barriers is a shared, ongoing effort—each step building on the last, contributing to a continuous legacy of progress and presence, ensuring that the past is never forgotten.

HAUI™ was published by Playwrights Canada Press and has collaborated with leading arts organizations such as the Canadian Opera Company, CBC, APTN, Stratford Festival, and Shaw Festival. His work continually challenges the boundaries of traditional media, amplifying underrepresented themes, myths, and histories.

HAUI™ served as the artist-in-residence for the City of Guelph, creating the audiovisual piece Aunt Harriet, set for release in 2025. HAUI™ will be the 2025 artist-in-residence at the prestigious Watermill Center in New York, founded by renowned director Robert Wilson. He is also the 2025 Chalmers Arts Fellowship recipient developing new projects in New York, Greece, Cuba, and Jamaica.

Recognized both nationally and internationally, HAUI™ was honoured with the Recent Graduate Award from Toronto Metropolitan University for distinction in the arts. His work continues to push the intersections of race, gender, and identity, offering a unique and unconventional perspective that challenges and redefines the boundaries of art.
