It began with a strange little girl, and Frida

When I was 8, my grandparents took me to a Frida Kahlo exhibit. I walked through that museum alone, completely captivated by a woman who created her own world and transmuted pain into beauty. I wanted to create and express my own complex, vibrant inner world too. I wanted to be an artist.

It took many more years to actually call myself one. Even now, being an artist in these times isn't for the faint of heart. I've shed a lot of fucks to get here — to surrender to something greater, to the wonder of human expression, and serve the great heartbeat of humanity with art, design, guidance, and healing.

The Path

My path has been winding — I got my creative professional badass start at 25, designing t-shirts for Marvel, Star Wars, Target, and other major retail and pop culture brands. Underground art shows, healing art workshops, mentoring teenage artists. Eventually I landed on visual branding, and something clicked. Seeing myself as a brand allowed me to be all of the things, all parts of my journey — the distillation of energy, the heart and soul of who I was, essence translated into visual core truth. I realized I could help others do the same, for a greater sense of wholeness and peace.

Art is life. It's human. It's us. I work intuitively — asking the right questions to uncover what makes someone's vision special, what lights them up, what their dream trajectory is — and translate that into visual form: custom branding, editorial design, public art, writing. Core truth expressed like a beautiful holographic resonance.

Over two decades, I've worked across brand identity, creative direction, and public art — for local, national, and global businesses, nonprofits, and conscious brands with a mission.

Be Strange, Be Different

As a mystic, neurodivergent person, I spent a lot of my life feeling like I didn't fit. Now I see that what made me feel strange is actually my superpower. I've carved my own lane as an artist, poet, visual designer, and creative guide. I create my own path, and I help others do the same.

I believe we all have a golden thread of truth running through us. Life is about following that thread, infinitely unique to each person. When you're aligned with your truth, you attract the right opportunities and people. You come home to yourself.

The Heart

We are collectively in times of great change. I think the answers come from within each of us, finding ways to listen within, and activate our heart's desire.

Activating healing and self-expression through the creative process is a personal calling. I co-facilitate Divine Creatives, an annual retreat in the sacred mountains of east San Diego, and lead healing art workshops for people who need more space to breathe.

Poetry, art, and writing from my heart is how I find my way home to myself. You can read my work on my Substack or Blog.

Heart + Soul

I live in San Diego with my son, Leo. I (try to) write every morning, doodle in the margins, practice yoga and spiritual rituals. I'm passionate about good food, red wine, soul friends, magic, the resiliency of the human spirit, and self-liberation to its nth degree. I'm excited to see where this path takes me next.
