Designer. Artist. explorer: Collecting STORIES and FOLLOWING THE THREAD…

Trained as an architect and designer and a curious explorer at heart, I’m on a journey to shine light on the in-between spaces and places: those physical and emotional moments of connection where the unexpected arises.

I’ve always had a deep curiosity for learning about seemingly disparate things: searching for patterns and threads in the built environment, the natural world, and most importantly to me now, our human interactions.

Driven by a deep sense of wonder and thoughtful intention, I’m diving into the in-between spaces with an open mind, sketchbook, and heart. Always more heart connection, please.

Navigating the world with tender ambition*

I’ve owned a textile design studio, practiced architecture, taught yoga in the deep south, mixed cocktails out west, had creative director in my title a number of times, and even sheared a sheep or two. Yet, truly, it’s those in-between things— the late night side projects, the purely-from-the-heart explorations, and the nourishing conversations— that continue to reveal so much to me.

Now I don’t overlook those moments. Instead, I create space for them. In doing so, I celebrate the continuous thread that stitches them together.
