“I am honored and humbled to have been invited to be an artist-in-residence at NYU's Clive Davis Institute,” Joey says in a statement. “I look forward to sharing my experiences and knowledge with the students and am sure I will learn a lot from them as well. I am committed to building community across all sectors and this is another beautiful step on that journey.”
