As an artist, writer and maker, I tell stories across creative mediums and empower others to share their perspectives. My current work connects young creatives in our community with artist mentors, guiding them through the process of creating murals, short films, and studio art that makes an impact on their community. Creating environments where great art happens, community can develop, and where people can see each other in a new light gives me great joy.My values center around compassion, hospitality and creativity. Whether I am designing systems for project management, developing an arts program or producing a show, the work I do best focuses on empowering diverse and sometimes opposite forces to know each other and learn.
