"The arts are powerful tools for healing and empowering people. 

Tools our society has forgotten. "

For years Starr’s career utilized her artistic and organizational skills, while personal passion led her to address issues she saw consistently neglected in our culture. She volunteered her time as a peer counselor-mentor, and her talent as an artist for murals, theatre, and community events. She has facilitated support groups for women, and lead senior citizens, youth, and adults in activities ranging from creative writing to video production focusing on personal growth and active citizenship. From her experience of the arts as a healing tool coupled with a desire to develop creative collaborations between artists and communities, Daydreamz project was borne. She now resides in Denver, CO, where Daydreamz national headquarters is located.
