A daily practice of mindfulness
Wildflowers blossom from the seeds we scattered in the spring.
An evolution of color, once a sea of green, now vibrant shades of red, orange, yellow, and violet. Hummingbirds and honey bees make their rounds, each taking turns to tango with the sweet nectar in this
ancient rite of life. Such is the creativity flourishing around me.
A native Californian, I grew up in my mother's garden, cultivating
an early love of flowers and plants and wildlife. My most cherished
memories are of my mama’s hands covered in dirt, deep in soil, nurturing
the roots of new life. I learned to see the world through my lens as a quiet observer, exploring the textures in my environment and appreciating the intricacy of the little things. It's a practice I infuse into my work as I
gently nudge my community to slow down and savor the beauty
within and around them. To me, life is about paying attention.

Quiet moments that fill my cup
Quiet moments that fill my cup
It all began in Rome.
A city whose rich cultural history is embedded in its
architectural diversity. From the corners of the Sistine Chapel
to the cobblestone of Rome's urban planning system, every site tells
a story. It was here, amidst aromas of homemade carbonara, that I began
to notice how communities interact with the design of their public spaces.
An interim pause between my BA and MA studies planted me at the center of
the museum world, first in London at the Victoria and Albert Museum, and then in
New York at the Whitney. I learned to appreciate how the spatial layout of an exhibit
is influential in the way we move through the gallery and experience each story as it
unfolds. So while we may think of museums as mere containers, they are their own
visual studies, intentionally designed for interactive, educational experiences.
My return to academia for a Master’s degree at the University of Chicago marked a
deepening of my discourse around the relationship between people in public spaces
and the visual cues that inspire, challenge, disrupt, and connect them. This evolved
into the digital realm, where I began applying the design philosophy of interactive
spaces to the strategies I was developing for organizations to curate their own
online spaces in order to inspire an emotional resonance with their audience.
With nearly a decade of experience, I've led successful content marketing
strategies and community-focused initiatives across the arts, media,
lifestyle, and wellness industries. Today I'm proud to work with
womxn on weaving their own compelling visual stories.
And so, the dance continues.
