Born in Raleigh NC, Clara Shadow Debnam is a DC-based Artist, Singer, and Storyteller who is concerned about those in society who are often overlooked and forgotten. Her creative abilities were recognized at an early age. She credits her gifts and nonconformist approach to life to God by way of her parents, Ms. Dorothy Debnam and the late Rev. Chester Debnam Jr.

After graduating from Wake Forest Divinity in May of 2017 and ending an eleven-year career with Hanes Brands Inc., Clara relocated to Washington, D.C. to pursue a discipleship year with the Church of the Saviour.

Today, Clara serves as the Operations Manger at The District Church. She strives to use her skills and gifts to bear fruit in every space she is in so that the God of All Creation may be glorified!
