Design has always been a way of life for me. Growing up in Alaska, I’ve learned to use what’s around me to improve the world and peoples’ circumstances. I am always seeking inspiration from the global travels I am lucky enough to embark on, as well as the various places I’ve lived around the country.

The complex issues that my partner, myself, and my children face in today’s school and social systems are always driving me to find ways to use art and design to impact my local community for the better. Considering the bigger picture and impact of my design work in these ways pushes me as a designer to create fully realized and well thought out concepts that serve the greater good as often as possible.

My work flourishes in the realm of the conceptual and experiential. My designs foster access to themes that connect on the broadest of human terms. My expressions seek to find ways to prompt questions about limitations and offer the space to push past them.

Connecting more deeply as humans, and questioning or elevating the various identities and structures around us, is fundamental to what I do and who I am. I believe design changes the world everyday. I hope to make larger impacts through the power of collaboration and community with like-minded artists, designers, and clients.
