Scroll down to learn about me and my work.


About Me

I’m a community developer, analog collage artist, and educator living in Sacramento, California. My work is deeply rooted in principals of collaboration, reciprocity, and justice. I am dedicated to supporting and representing the inter-connectivity of humans to one another and the “natural,” or more-than-human world.


Research

Detailed below are major research efforts I’ve undertaken as a university student and intern for Valley Vision.

  • DINING & DECEIVED VIDEO PROJECT

    DINING & DECEIVED VIDEO PROJECT

Portfolio

I’m an analog collage artist + ceramicist. My artistic process is heavily influenced by my values as an intersectional ecofeminist.

I work to create seamless compositions from found and discarded objects in which femme subjects are re-situated away from the male gaze and placed into surreal landscapes of beauty, pleasure, and joy.


Community Work

Learn more about my work with communities from Maryland to California

Across the roles I’ve taken on, from youth political leader to board member to volunteer & more, I’ve dedicated myself to the needs and wants of my communities. To do this work, and to do it right, we must center & co-power communities that are the most structurally and systematically oppressed. Nobody’s free until we are all free.
