About Me

---

Jojo “Abenaavi” Wright's goals are to share her love of house music culture, document its history, and curate events that provide an opportunity for those in the house community to shine. 

She started dancing at a very young age.  She incorporates her training in jazz, tap, ballet, African dance, martial arts, and spirituality into her movements.  When she entered the NJ/NY house club scene nearly ten years ago, she immediately started dancing for house music artists and sharing her love by organizing house dance sessions and family-friendly events. Jojo has danced in house music videos, at house music festivals, and at the Winter Music Conference.  In Newark, New Jersey, Jojo curates a multimedia arts showcase during the Newark Arts Festival, is a curator for Lincoln Park Festival  House Music Experience,  was a resident dancer for Ubiquity Soul at Military Park, and was a primary dancer for house music artists Koffee the Floetress and Cassio Ware. 

She started computer programming at the age of ten and has continued to grow in her passion for technology to her current Architect position at Microsoft. Her focus is on using collaborative apps and generative AI to improve the productivity and well-being of the end users. To create a bridge between her love of art and technology, she founded a non-profit called Abenaavi Gives STEAM.
