The Work:  

The Work consists of my patchwork career: artist, writer, teacher, & daytime office dweller. Every day, I do at least one thing to further the Work. 

I am striving to create both a physical and digital record of my experience of living in this time. I create videos for both myself and others, pulling from my BA in Television Production and nearly 7 years working as a freelance video editor for both established small businesses and individual artists. 

With nearly two dozen published articles, interviews, and features under my belt, along with 15 years writing experience, I aim to use my words to relate the process and life-lessons the creative life teach. I offer insight and a short cut through the woods to those eager to follow along on the artists' path.  

Advocacy & Support:

Diagnosed with a chronic illness at a young age, I have gone through the roller coaster of emotions -- the peaks and valleys that come with a life less in your control. Art saved me, and continues to show me an easier, more joyous way through. I aim to lead others to a happier life through art, and offer support and a community for those living with chronic illnesses wishing to deepen their artistic abilities.
