So much can happen in a year! ✨

As I’m getting ready to go back to work in a month, reflecting on the past year fills me with hope and gratitude. I graduated with my masters degree, had a wildly successful art show, landed my dream job as a high school counselor, then found out I was pregnant shortly after. 😅 Nine months later, we were surprised with a girl, Violet Eva.

Along the way, I’ve been blessed to spend quality time with friends and family. My community truly rallied around me the whole way. I love you all so much!

Most of all, I’m thankful for my partner, Tor, who has showed up in ways I couldn’t have imagined and continues to do so. He values me as a mother, as an artist, and most importantly as a friend.

I can only imagine what’s to come, and I only hope that it’s more of the same. 🫶🏼

Hello artist and event community!
I’m in search of a grid wall to hang multiple artists work to borrow the weekend of 8/17-8/20.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Master of Education in Counseling

My art and creativity have weaved their way throughout the completion of this program. When the pandemic closed down schools, and I could no longer teach art, I search within and found my calling. It was patiently waiting for me to see it, to connect to it, to embody it.

I am an artist first, always and forever. …because making art makes me feel good. I paint because it calms me. I paint because it inspires me. I paint because I need to.

With my new path as a professional counselor, I get to encourage others to find that which makes them feel the same.

Thank you to everyone in my life who has seen me truly, and encouraged me ever so slightly down this road. So many people will benefit as a result of your love. 💕

Teaching has been a really fun byproduct of being a process artist.

Over the years, I have learned to connect to kids in ways that I had no idea I was capable of. Honestly, by just being my genuine self, I have had unbelievable opportunities to model emotional regulation and self responsibility.

I LOVE MY WORK. I work with foster youth, and every single day is a new adventure. I try hard to bring ideas for hands on activities and through these activities, we strengthen our connections and they strengthen their self-efficacy to accomplish hard things.
